Technology Platforms

Biomedical research requires access to an array of technologies — and to people with the knowledge of how to use them in creative ways — to tackle complex problems. Ó³»­´«Ã½'s technology platforms bring together professional scientists with deep expertise in distinct technology areas and work collaboratively with researchers within the Ó³»­´«Ã½ community and external partners to make specialized technical capabilities available for a wide range of challenging projects. 

Ó³»­´«Ã½'s platforms engage as partners in experimental design, execution, and analysis; conduct original research; and invent and refine state-of-the-art technologies in their specific scientific domains.

The Data Sciences Platform is a methods development and software engineering group that builds applications and capabilities, connecting researchers with patients, datasets, and tools.

The Center for the Development of Therapeutics (CDoT) carries out many aspects of the drug discovery process to help biological insights become new therapeutics.

The Genetic Perturbation Platform develops and applies functional genomic tools, with a particular focus on deploying various custom-designed CRISPR technologies for large-scale genetic screens.

The Genomics Platform and Ó³»­´«Ã½ Clinical Labs provide state-of-the-art research- and clinical-grade multi -omic sequencing, create foundational genomic resources, and undertake large-scale disease-based projects.

The Imaging Platform pioneers advanced methods and computational tools for quantifying and mining the rich information present in cellular images, and supports biologists in applying these tools to propel biomedical research.

The Metabolomics Platform undertakes both discovery- and hypothesis-driven studies of metabolites, the unique chemical fingerprints that result from both normal and pathological cellular processes.

The Proteomics Platform develops and applies best-in-class mass spectrometry-based proteomic technologies.

The Spatial Technology Platform supports scientists who wish to apply image-based spatial -omic technologies in their research, and develops new spatial, imaging, and computational technologies
