Microarray Discount Policy for DHC Members

Each Digestive Health Center (DHC) investigator will receive a 50% discount on all chips up to $2,400 per fiscal year of the DHC grant.

First time microarray core users will recieve a 50% discount of all chips up to $4,000. 

Both dollar cap limits are dependent on the availability of funds.

Note:  If you used the Microarray Service as a DDRDC member you are NOT eligible for the new first time user dollar cap in the DHC.

Remember to acknowledge the use of the Gene Expression and Sequencing core in all publications by stating:
"This project was supported in part by PHS Grant P30 DK078392."
