Research Cores
The four themes of the DHC are linked by highly innovative biomedical research cores that are listed below in order to facilitate patient-based research. Collectively they form a powerful infrastructure that fosters the development of personalized and predictive medical approaches to digestive diseases. These cores provide members with the latest advancements in technology and assist in experimental design.
- Bioinformatics Core
- The Bioinformatics Core provides statistical and computational analysis for the complex experiments
performed in the Gene Expression and Sequencing Core. - Gene Expression and Sequencing Core
- The Gene Expression and Sequencing Core offers state of the art gene expession technology such as microarray and SNP analysis.
- Integrative Morphology Core
- The Integrative Morphology Core provides technical support for morphology studies, including immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, and expertise for microscopic and pathologic evaluation. Additional services are confocal, 2-photon and electron microscopy and laser capture microdissection.
- Clinical Component
- The Clinical Component supports biostatistical services and the infrastructure to implement and monitor execution of disease-based clinical research.
