Overview of Services

 

The Molecular Biology Platform aims to provide access to state-of-the-art molecular biology expertise, services and equipment. It offers a variety of technical services, ranging from assuring the safe use and proper maintenance of shared equipment to the production – including design, synthesis and expression and optimization – of genetic constructs for a number of experimental applications and expression systems. It also has a virus production service (adeno-associated, of different serotypes, and lentiviruses ) that provides high titer viral products for in vitro and in vivo delivery of genes.
