The HSC Cell Imaging Core offers exceptional services to both internal and external researchers at the University of Utah, as well as customers from various companies. Our core provides access to cutting-edge optical microscopes and imaging analysis software, and our experienced members offer comprehensive training for patrons to use the core or take advantage of our Assisted Imaging service. Additionally, we can offer extensive collaboration for complex projects. With the support of the University and our patrons, the HSC Cell Imaging Core has expanded to six different locations, making it easy for around 300 patrons annually to access our 15+ standard and state-of-the-art microscopes across the campus.

The Mutation Generation and Detection Facility specializes in providing customized TALEN and Crispr DNA nucleases to induce targeted mutations in a genomic region of your interest. TALEN and Crispr DNA nucleases are a cutting edge technology for performing reverse genetic studies in multiple model systems, including Zebrafish, Drosophila, C. elegans, and mammalian tissue culture.

The Genetic Mutation and Detection Core also offers services to identify induced mutations using High Resolution Melt Analysis. Our support includes hardware, reagents, and expert advice for optimizing and performing HRMA for your gene of interest.

The University of Utah DNA Sequencing Core Facility exists primarily to serve university researchers, but is available to assist in the data generation of outside clients as well.

The Core utilizes Capillary electrophoresis as well as Ion Torrent Next-Gen Sequencing.
