Cells, Tissues, and Models Core
The Cells and Tissue and Models Core was established to provide well-differentiated epithelial models for studies on the pathophysiology of cystic fibrosis (CF) and for molecular and gene therapy experiments. The Cells and Tissue Core mission is to advance CF research within the scope of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
Comparative Pathology Core
The Metabolic Phenotyping Core provides investigators with specialized and non-invasive metabolic assays to phenotype cells, tissue, and animal models related to diabetes, obesity, other metabolic disorders and their complications.
Viral and Non-Viral Vector Core
The overall objective of the Viral and Non-Viral Vector Core (VNVVC)is to support Precision Medicine Center members and the research community in generating and implementing gene delivery technologies. This includes consultation, development of novel delivery tools, collaborative testing of vectors for function and purity, and routine preparations of viral and non-viral vectors.
Clinical Phenotyping Core
The Metabolic Phenotyping Core provides investigators with specialized and non-invasive metabolic assays to phenotype cells, tissue, and animal models related to diabetes, obesity, other metabolic disorders and their complications.
