Core facility that provides academic and industrial researchers from around the world with affordable multi-platform sequencing, library preparation, data analysis and related services.

Facility offers preparation of samples from fresh or fixed tissue through to scanned images.
Provides training to prepare and use equipment to embed, section and hand stain tissues as required. Offers three different types of wax for embedding and sectioning as required.
Fully equipped for methyl methacrylate and glycol methacrylate embedding and sectioning (including larger samples), freeze microtomy and high throughput slide imaging using our Zeiss Axioscan Z1.

Provides access to imaging systems. Offers researchers technologies for multi-modality, non-invasive approaches to imaging on small, live animals, or tissues and organs extracted from animals . Our equipment can be used for pre-clinical models and non-biological samples.

Automation, synthetic biology and protein production facility. As founder member of Global Biofoundry Alliance we are part of UK government initiative to strengthen engineering biology capabilities in the country and beyond. GeneMill offers high-throughout, automated gene cloning, sequence diversity generation and phenotyping. Our portfolio also includes a full protein production service.

Through its use of fertilised hen's eggs, offers researchers method for scientific research that can also reduce or replace the use of mammalian models. Provides expertise in chorioallantoic membrane xenograft models of cancer, including patient-derived xenografts, to translate in vitro cancer studies and test therapeutic approaches.
