CORE--SHARED INSTRUMENTATION

仪器共享资源包括一个内部车间，用于维修、维护、设计和制造轻型和专业实验室设备，以及主要复杂共享设备的外部服务合同。该资源由Leemor Joshua-Tor博士（副教授）监督，由Clifford Sutkevich先生（高级技术员）直接管理。所有癌症中心的成员都使用车间，因为它既提供预防性维护，也提供设备维修的快速服务。所有成员还可以使用服务合同所涵盖的所有主要设备。所有成员还可以使用服务合同所涵盖的所有主要设备。该资源有助于减少设备故障，并大大降低癌症中心成员使用设备的成本。设计和制造车间准备专门的实验室设备，并与癌症中心的成员一起设计和建造设备的规格。该资源极大地提高了癌症中心研究人员在实验室进行的所有科学工作，并非常有效地降低了与仪器相关的成本。我们继续要求为这一资源的一部分固定费用提供支助，并为专门设备的外部服务合同提供支助。我们还要求在升级一些共享设备方面得到一些支持。癌症中心支持拨款对于维持这一中心共享资源以及它所允许的研究和合作是绝对必要的。

The Instrumentation Shared Resource encompasses an in-house workshop for repair, maintenance, design and fabrication of light and specialized laboratory equipment as well as the outside service contracts for the major complex shared equipment. The resource is supervised by Dr. Leemor Joshua-Tor (Associate Professor) and managed directly by Mr. Clifford Sutkevich (Senior Technician). All members of the Cancer Center use the workshop as it provides both preventive maintenance as well as fast service in equipment repair. All members also have access to all of the major equipment covered by service contracts. All members also have access to all of the major equipment covered by service contracts. The resource helps reduce equipment failure and greatly reduces the cost of equipment utilization by members of the Cancer Center. The design and fabrication workshop prepares specialized laboratory equipment and works together with members of the Cancer Center to design and construct equipment to specifications. This resource greatly enhances all of the scientific work conducted in the laboratories of Cancer Center investigators and reduces the costs associated with instrumentation very effectively. We continue to request support for a portion of the fixed costs of this resource and support for outside service contracts on specialized equipment. We also request some support in upgrading some of the shared equipment. The Cancer Center Support Grant is absolutely essential for maintaining this central Shared Resource and for the Research and collaboration it allows.
