    Miniaturizing Life: Microfluidics and Microfabrication Facility

    Cell and tissue culture has played an important role in life science research. However, cells in culture behave quite differently from cells in vivo, and the knowledge gained from these cannot be directly extrapolated to cells in the context of an organism. There is a great interest in the scientific community to generate devices that can control the microenvironments of cells in culture.

    Designing and immortalizing genomes: Mouse Genome Engineering Facility

    Contemporary genome engineering technologies have made it possible to use a variety of model organisms to their full potential in genetic research. Although comparatively simpler and time-saving, these technologies still require a considerable amount of technical and scientific skills in addition to state-of-the-art infrastructure. Facilities that can take charge of generating such resources are constantly in demand.

    Decoding the Genome - Next Generation Genomics Facility

    Core facilities are an integral part of modern research. They provide not only unique resources and state-of-the-art capabilities but also technical expertise and experience so that a non-expert scientist can confidently perform specialized experiments and aim to move their research program in any new direction. Facilities serve as a nexus for collaborations, interdisciplinary research, and platforms for cost-effective innovation.
