Facility Details

Our services consist of research pathology support for preclinical or basic science animal studies. Services include histology and immunohistochemistry, animal hematology and clinical chemistry, digital slide scanning/image analysis, and pathology interpretation by board-certified veterinary pathologists. We are a non-GLP academic core specialized toward support of academic or early -phase (discovery) preclinical research. Our laboratory maintains internal SOPs and accountability/chain-of-custody records for all submissions. Additionally we participate in an external quality control program (Veterinary Laboratory Association). Our core mission is to reduce bias and increase rigor of preclinical research in academia by providing high quality support services that may not be otherwise accessible within individual laboratories.
