Description:

Core delivers specialized histology, microscopy, and cytogenetics services for detection in situ (cells, tissue sections, organoids, and whole mounts) of biomarkers (proteins, glycoproteins, lipids, nucleic acids) and molecular processes in normal and pathological conditions. Performs comprehensive antibody validation on cells and tissues, trains investigators in basic staining principles and assists with experimental assay design and downstream analysis. Core maintains four whole-slide scanners and provides support for quantitative whole-slide analysis. Microscopy and dedicated image analysis staff provide support for simple or complex analysis pipelines.
