任务

的 mission of the 组织学 和 Imaging Core is to provide Center for 疼痛 研究 investigators 和 the greater UNE research community access to expertise, Training, 和 specialized instrumentation related to tissue processing, 切片, 染色, 免疫组织化学, 和显微镜.

Additionally the Core offers ServiceTraining related to image analysis 和 image analysis software to guide investigators in choosing the best methods for presenting their data. We also accommodate work for outside facilities on a fee-for-service basis.

的se images represent work completed by 组织学 和 Imaging Core professional staff. All samples were processed on core equipment, 和 images captured on core microscopes. 的 gallery contains a wide variety of tissue types, including nervous tissue, 骨, 海带, 和 drosophila larvae.

Service

的 组织学 和 Imaging Core is fully equipped to perform a wide range of histological processing to suit investigators’ needs.

样品处理

的 组织学 和 Imaging Core is fully integrated with the UNE的行为核心 和 can directly process samples collected by the 行为的核心.

Training

的 Core also provides Training to professional staff 和 students on equipment 和 techniques. 

的 core has cryostats, microtomes, 和 microscopes available for reservation. To avoid scheduling conflicts 和 maintenance issues, all equipment must be reserved using Outlook calendars, 和 individual users must be trained by core staff.

的 Leica confocal has a separate Training procedure consisting of two 2-hour supervised sessions, several informational videos, 还有一个在线测试. 的 first Training session is an introduction to the microscope guided by core staff. 的 second session entails imaging of a user-generated sample with minimal intervention from Core staff. Upon completion of a proficiency quiz, users can reserve time as desired.

For any Training inquiries, please email 彼得Caradonna at pcaradonna@zhongxinboligang.com.

徽章

UNE徽章计划 is a non-credit bearing vehicle that digitally validates 和 documents knowledge, 技能, 资格, 和能力. 对所有学习者开放, any participant who completes the learning activities 和 demonstrates achievement of the learning outcomes/competencies for a badge would be able to claim it. Sharing badges with graduate schools, potential employers, etc., is a great way to demonstrate some of the skills 和能力 you have acquired that are not captured in an academic transcript.

For interested students, the core is now part of the UNE徽章计划. 学生 will gain a knowledge-base 和 skillsets relevant to the core specialty.

资金

Assistance is available for help to cover the fees for work performed by the research cores.
