MIMR has a number of core facilities available for external use. These include the Gandel Charitable Trust Sequencing Centre, a facility MIMR shares with its fellow Monash Health Research Precinct Members, Prince Henry’s Institute and Southern Health, providing high-quality, long read DNA sequences; the Immunoassay Facility that utilises MIMR scientists' 20 years experience in measuring hormones and other anaylates in biological fluids; the Monash Gene Targeting Facility, providing customised, genetically modified mice to the academic research community; and the MIMR Histology Laboratory that provides a fundamental service for research scientists, preparing tissue samples for microscopic examination of their structure at cellular level, that can be fixed in paraffin or snap frozen for cryosectioning.

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:

    Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
