CARD Core facilities
Histology Support
Mr Carl Hobbs
Microscopic examination of normal and pathological cells and tissues is essential in the understanding of disease processes. At the Wolfson CARD we utilise a wide range of Histological and Cytological techniques for screening and also in- depth analysis for conditions such as Alzheimer’s Disease.
Bioinformatics Support
Dr Gareth Williams
My work covers many areas of bioinformatics with particular emphasis on structural biology. Current projects are microarray search engines, protein dynamical simulation and interaction site prediction.
Viral Vector Core
Dr Lawrence Moon and John Grist
Our Viral Vector Core Facility makes lentiviral vectors and adeno-associated viral vectors. This dedicated facility has an ultracentrifuge and all other required equipment to produce high-titer vector.
