The CTSC Translational Laboratory (T-Laboratory) is comprised of 6,000 gsf of wet-lab space, located in the newly renovated UNM CTSC Building. The T-Laboratory offers state-of-the-art equipment and technical assistance with laboratory techniques for UNM HSC investigators. The experienced staff of the T-Laboratory provides specialized laboratory support, customized to meet the needs of the investigators in all aspects of research including protocol/assay development, budget preparation, and testing of patient samples for various assays. The T-Laboratory provides sample preparation and technical support for other non-CTSC resources such as: UNM Shared Flow Cytometry and High Throughput Screening Resource, and KUSAIR Small Animal Imaging. In addition, our staff will provide training to UNM HSC investigators staff on molecular techniques, clinical techniques, or equipment. See also BBHI Service menu.
There are 3 options for utilization of CTSC T-Laboratory Services:
This service is available for investigators who have short deadlines with minimal staffing available, long-term projects with minimal staffing available, current staff isn’t trained in particular technique, or would prefer the CTSC T-Laboratory expert staff to perform testing. All reagents, test kits, and consumables are provided by the CTSC T-Laboratory. Investigator provides the necessary sample type and volume for test requested.
This service is available for investigators who already have experienced staff that can perform the assays within their study but the equipment is not available in the investigators facilities. All reagents, test kits, and consumables are provided by the investigator. The CTSC T-Laboratory will provide standard operating procedures, calibration, maintenance, trouble shooting, set-up and shut-down of all equipment in the CTSC T-Laboratory.
This service is available for investigators who have staff, post-doctorates, and fellows etc. who do not have experience performing the assays within their study but would like to learn the technology. All reagents, test kits, and consumables are provided by the investigator. The CTSC T-Laboratory will provide skilled expertise and training procedures for investigators staff, post-doctorates, fellows etc. As well as, standard operating procedures, calibration, maintenance, trouble shooting, set-up and shut-down of all equipment in the CTSC T-Laboratory.
