Welcome to the Microarray and Bioinformatics Core

Mission:

The Meharry Microarray and Bioinformatics Core (MMBC) provides state of the art training, instrumentation, services and bioinformatics-driven data analysis to the Meharry Community in microarray experimental design, manipulation, and gene expression analysis.

We also aid investigators and trainees in validation of microarray results using RNA QA/QC and real time PCR results.

Finally, this Core Resource aids Meharry investigators and trainees with high performance computation in proteomics as well as genomics. Gene and protein pathways analysis and shotgun proteomics (mass spectrometry) analysis are just two more of the services that we provide.

It is our aim to keep this facility up to date computationally and intellectually with state of the art “Omics” services to support education and research in microarray, genomics and proteomics data analysis, computational biology, and systems biology.

The Meharry Medical College Microarray and Bioinformatics Core is funded by resources provided by the RCMI Program and the Clinical Research Center.  Without the support of these funding sources we could not provide low-cost services to Meharry Medical College.

Investigators, please cite this core appropriately in all abstracts, posters, papers, and grant submissions:

“Experiments/Data analysis/presentation [include what you use] were performed through the use of the Meharry Medical College Microarray and Bioinformatics Core, which is supported in part by NIH grants G12RR03032-19 and P20RR011792.”

Please let us know when you publish, and if possible, send us an electronic reprint of the paper.
