Core--Histochemistry

该组织化学核心提供了国家的最先进的技术支持，设施和协作的专业知识，本计划项目的主要研究者所需要的组织化学和形态学方法。组织化学核心服务和设施包括组织固定和处理（包括低温切片）、组织学和组织化学染色（例如，lacZ）、免疫细胞化学、荧光显微镜、图像分析和激光捕获 显微解剖如有必要，组织化学核心可以提供原位杂交和共聚焦显微镜。组织化学核心的拟议主任是Denis G博士。巴斯金是组织化学和糖尿病/内分泌学研究领域的知名科学家。他是华盛顿大学的医学研究教授，也是西雅图退伍军人医疗中心的高级研究职业科学家。巴斯金博士将监督组织化学核心的行政和科学活动，并作为利用核心的计划项目研究的合作者。

The Histochemistry Core provides state-of-the-art technical support, facilities, and collaborative expertise for histochemical and morphological methods needed by the principal investigators of this Program Project. Histochemistry Core services and facilities include tissue fixation and processing (including cryostat sectioning), histological and histochemical staining (e.g., lacZ), immunocytochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, image analysis, and laser capture microdissection. If necessary, the Histochemistry Core can provide in situ hybridization and confocal microscopy. The proposed Director of the Histochemistry Core is Dr. Denis G. Baskin, an established scientist in the fields of histochemistry and diabetes/endocrinology research. He is Research Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington and is also Senior Research Career Scientist in the Seattle VA Medical Center. Dr. Baskin will oversee the administrative and scientific activities of the Histochemistry Core and act as a collaborator on Program Project studies that utilize the core.
