Welcome to the homepage of BIOGEM, at the University of California, San Diego.
The Biomedical Genomics Microarray (BIOGEM) laboratory is a genomics facility located in the Department of Medicine at UCSD. (BIOGEM) was established in 2000 to provide spotted cDNA microarray technology to the UCSD research community. Since then the scope has been expanded to include a variety of related services and resources, including several commercial microarray platforms. Currently BIOGEM provides RNA sample analysis and quantification services. Additionally BIOGEM processes commercial array platforms including Illumina and Agilent.
BIOGEM also provides spotted array fabrication, image scanning and data analysis services.
Microarray fabrication, probe preparation, array hybridization, data acquisition and data analysis require expensive instrumentation and reagents and a highly skilled team of individuals who are experts in specific components of the overall procedure. Microarray technology therefore lies beyond the scope of most individual laboratories and can only be made accessible to academic and early stage biotech investigators through specialized centers and CORE facilities. In addition to providing conventional microarray services, such CORE facilities provide essential platforms for advancing new technologies.
BIOGEM currently offers a range of microarray and data analysis services to
the local and international academic and biotech communities. Please contact
Dr. Gary Hardiman <ghardiman@ucsd.edu> for more details.
