About the core
The Keck Microarray Shared Resource (KMSR) functions as a shared cost-recovery core facility to provide technical capability and expertise with state-of-the-art instrumentation for biomedical and clinical research at Yale community as well as institutions around the world. The KSMR is committed to:
- Providing timely, high-quality data generation and analysis at a competitive cost,
- Working collaboratively with investigators to develop and implement new technologies for their research, and
- Educating and training customers in cutting-edge technologies.
Services
We provide the following services using state-of-the-art technologies:
- Nucleic acid isolation and assessment
- Microarray genotyping and gene expression profiling
- Single-cell genomics and proteomics analysis (10X Genomics, Mission Bio, Parse Biosciences, PhenomeX IsoSpark)
- Spatial genomics analysis
- Long-read sequencing (Oxford Nanopore and PacBio).
Locations and hours
Single-cell sample drop-off, 300 George Street: Monday – Friday, 1 PM – 4 PM
West Campus Genome Analysis Center, 830 West Campus Drive: Monday – Friday, 9 AM – 5 PM (After-hours sample drop-off in foyer)
Terms of service
We will not accept responsibility for ANY samples that fail due to inadequate concentration or quality. ALL CLAIMS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR NATURE, MUST BE BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION WITHIN 30 DAYS OF RESULTS DISSEMINATION. The user will only be billed for the work performed. In the event that the sample was found to be the source of processing failure, the user shall bear the resulting cost associated with the troubleshooting. We assume that samples submitted to us have met our posted criteria. Additionally, it is the responsibility of the user to keep track of and use their microarrays and reagents prior to the manufacturers’ expiration date. We will not accept responsibility for array- and reagent expiration-related failures.
