Genomics and Transcriptomics Core

Home | Services | Equipment

The Genomics/Transcriptomics Core (GTC) provides scientists of the IMS access to the modern genomics instruments, as well as experimental and bioinformatics services for state-of-the-art genomics and transcriptomics studies.

Located at the IMS-Annexe on Level 4 Laboratory Block, the GTC currently houses equipment for traditional Sanger sequencing, real-time quantitative PCR, Affymetrix microarrays, as well as automated liquid handling. In 2014, we formed a collaborative partnership with the Genomics Core, CRUK Cambridge Institute and we provide low-cost next-generation sequencing (NGS) facilities for the MRL as well as other MRC-affiliated units.

All new users have to register with either David Withers or Marcella Ma, who will then provide appropriate training and registration onto our online booking system.
