RTRN __RCMI Core Facilities

Core Resources

Our researchers are not limited to the tools at their individual research centers because they can access the resources, technologies and equipment of the 18 RCMIs across the US and Puerto Rico. Our Network has state-of-the-art facilities that include advanced instrumentation such as digital-image processors, electron microscopes, spinning disk confocal microscopes, thermocyclers for gradient PCR and qRT-PCR, UV/VIS and fluorescence spectrophotometers, and much more.
