The Rogel Cancer Center Cell and Tissue Imaging Shared Resource (a.k.a. the BRCF Microscopy Core) is a centralized operation including more than 3,000 square feet focusing mainly on studies of cell and tissue morphology and ultrastructure. As part of the Office of Research in the University of Michigan Medical School, we provide a fee-for-service-based operation -- open to researchers from all departments within the university, other institutions and also the industrial research community. Scheduling, instrumentation, and pricing information are available by visiting the MiCores website.
