General Information-PDO Is disseminating the following information on behalf of Dr. Lou Hersh, Director of the NIH-funded COBRE for the Center for Molecular Medicine.

Announcement

The University of Kentucky Center for Molecular Medicine sponsors three scientific cores for use by researchers at the University of Kentucky. These include a Protein core providing services for the production and characterization of proteins, an Organic synthesis core synthesizing small molecules not commercially available, and a Genetic Technologies core producing recombinant virus and other molecular biological reagents. These cores, sponsored in part by a Center Of Biological Research Excellence grant, through the National Institute of General Medicine, provide low cost services to facilitate the research of its users. For University of Kentucky faculty the core service charges are further reduced through supplementation. In addition investigators without or with limited research funding can apply for vouchers, which, if approved will cover the cost of the services provided.
