The Cancer and Inflammation Program – Microbiome and Genetics Core (CIP-MGC) grew out of the former CIP Genetics Core to meet the increasing need for sequencing and analysis of commensal microbiota within CIP and NCI.
The MGC team specializes in:
- sample handling, purification and 16S sequencing
- bioinformatic processing and computational analysis of sequenced reads
- support in genetics and statistical epidemiology
We use the Eppendorf epmotion 5073 and 5075 robots for the normalization of sample concentrations and sequencing library preparation and one llumina MiSeq and one NextSeq 500 for Sequencing
