Boston Children's Research Mouse Gene Manipulation Core

Welcome to the Molecular Genetics Core, your central hub for cutting-edge genetics and genomic technology services.  At the forefront of innovation, we offer affordable and high-quality technological solutions while leveraging advanced molecular genomic techniques.  In doing so, we provide researchers with the support needed for exploring the underlying biology of neurological conditions and potential therapeutic strategies.  We are located in the Center for Life Sciences (CLS) Building.

Keeping up with rapidly evolving and complex technology requires multidisciplinary expertise and resources that can often be beyond the reach of a single laboratory.  At our core, we bring together cutting-edge technology and sophisticated scientific expertise into a single, cost-effective and accessible location. 

Exciting and new equipment and technology such as the Nanopore PromethION 24 , extensive sample QC instrumentation (Bioanalyzer, Tapestation, Qubit, Nanodrop), and single-cell techniques and sample prep automation (Levicell, S2, Qiagen QiaCube, Hamilton StarLET, 10X Visium CytAssist) are offered at our core.  See “Equipment” tab.

Supported in part by the Boston Children’s Hospital Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Research Center (IDDRC) grant, we proudly provide specialized genomic services to IDDRC investigators at Boston Children’s Hospital, delivering excellence at reduced rates.
