Experimental Pathology Core Lab

The Experimental Pathology Shared Resource Laboratory is a non-profit laboratory that provides Cancer Institute investigators with centralized, comprehensive histological services. The laboratory currently works with over 40 investigators. By providing a centralized laboratory, we offer convenient access to all services within one facility, save costs for investigators and the institution, increase efficiency of sample processing, eliminate duplication of services and equipment, and maintain stringent quality control standards. The laboratory director, consultants, and technicians have extensive experience in routine
histology and immunohistochemistry involving both human and animal tissues.
