Genomics and Informatics (ilabs)

The MIT BioMicro Center is an integrated genomics core facility that provides both expertise and equipment for systems biology. The core has significant resources in sample preparation, next generation sequencing and in high throughput screening as well as bioinformatics and BioIT. The Center is a joint endeavor between the Department of Biology, the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research (Integrated Genomics and Bioinformatics Core (IGB)), and the Department of Biological Engineering.
