Norris Center Molecular Genomics Core
The Molecular Genomics Core Facility performs high throughput analyses of genetic (polymorphism/mutation) and epigenetic variations (DNA methylation) that underlie predisposition and progression to cancer. The Core uses the latest technology to evaluate primarily genetic variations for association studies using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
