Welcome to the inaugural edition of the CHOP Research Institute Cores e-Newsletter!

This new, quarterly publication provides a forum for CHOP Research Institute Core directors to share information with the research community. The goal is to encourage familiarity with members of each Core’s staff and the unique expertise these individuals bring to your research programs and provide updates on instrumentation and services.

Our Cores offer a variety of expertise and specialized equipment to help principal investigators elevate their projects with state-of-art data analysis, sequencing techniques, and study design. Each edition of this newsletter will feature a Q&A with a Core director who will share a bit about themselves, their team, and their services. Additionally, we will highlight successes, new staff members, and new devices and resources, as well as relevant office hours and training opportunities.



I hope you’ll enjoy getting better acquainted with our Core facilities and the many ways they can help translate your ideas into research discoveries.
