Upcoming Core Seminars:

Wed, November 1st, 2018 in X-715 & X-830 from 10AM-3PM (Lunch Will Be Served!):

Mission of the Core:

  • The objective of the Analytical Instrumentation Core is to provide support/training to investigators through cutting-edge analytical instruments and services to facilitate research and education in the Department of Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine as well as Boston Medical Center. We maintain all core instruments and provide open access to resources in an effort to increase accessibility of instruments for investigators. We fully support investigators in their efforts to win extramural research funding and introduce innovative instrumentation through the use of regularly held seminars.

Location:

  • The Analytical Instrumentation Core’s central laboratory is located at 650 Albany Street, Lab 830, Boston, MA 02118. Other satellite sites on the BUMC include W-, X-, E-, R-buildings and the Evans Biomedical Research Center

  • Please contact Lynn Deng for access to buildings and lab locations

Please Help Us Help You!

  • Grants: The Analytical Instrumentation Core operates at a loss and is subsidized by the Department of Medicine. What does not get included in the balance sheets are the indirect costs generated from grants obtained with the help of data from our core. You can help us continue to serve you by letting us know when you submit a proposal and/or are awarded a grant which contains data obtained from the use of our Core.
