Biomedical Genomics Core

• Consultation: We provide consultation and advice on experimental design, sample preparation, data analysis and interpretation.
• Sample Quality: We work with our clients to help them produce high quality samples and all samples undergo vigorous quality testing prior to analysis.
• Labeling and Hybridization: We use cutting edge techniques to label and hybridize samples following strict quality assurance guidelines.
• Array processing and image analysis: We wash and scan all arrays under tightly regulated conditions, using the latest genomic platforms and processing technologies.
• Analysis and Bioinformatics Support: We perform all steps required for data processing and experimental QC, including statistical analysis and guidance with data interpretation.

Our services can be broken down into the following four research areas:

Expression Analysis
Our most popular service! Using technologies from both Agilent and Affymetrix we are able to generate comprehensive gene expression profiles at the transcript level, or if you are interested in splicing, take it down to the exon level!

Gene Regulation Analysis
Map transcription factor binding sites or identify chromatin remodeling using the powerful ChIP-on-Chip technology.

Small RNA Expression Profiling
Generate microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles using a robust and highly sensitive microarray platform to obtain a broad insight into miRNA expression and regulation.

Whole Genome Analysis
Through the latest technologies available from Agilent and Affymetrix we provide powerful solutions for research in cancer and developmental disorders by enabling scientists to conduct large-scale linkage analysis, association, and copy number studies.
