Cytogenetics Core
Director: Charles Lee
Location: 75 Francis Street, Thorn 503, Boston

 

Core Summary:

The Cytogenetics Core provides insight into regions of the genome that are pathogenetic in
various neoplasms, leading to an understanding of the molecular pathways that play a role in
the biology of cancer. The Cytogenetics Core provides conventional metaphase karyotyping
and a comprehensive menu of molecular cytogenetic methods.
