NINDS Intramural Research Support Facilities The PROTEIN/PEPTIDE SEQUENCING FACILITY provides amino acid sequencing of purified proteins/peptides for NINDS investigators. The facility is also available for collaborations involving protein/peptide purification and more complicated sequencing strategies. The DNA SEQUENCING FACILITY provides rapid and reliable automated DNA sequencing, assistance with sequence analysis and data storage as services for the NINDS intramural neuroscience programs. The Facility also incorporates new developments and protocols for DNA sequencing. The LIGHT IMAGING FACILITY provides intramural scientists with access to state-of-the-art light imaging equipment and expertise in light imaging techniques. The Facility offers training and assistance in a variety of light microscopic techniques including laser scanning confocal microscopy, video microscopy and digital image analysis. A digital image printer and slide maker are available for preparing illustrations for presentations and publications. The EM FACILITY provides intramural NINDS investigators with the opportunity to use electron microscopic techniques in their research programs. The Facility provides assistance in all aspects of electron microscopy including project planning, specimen preparation and training. The MRI RESEARCH FACILITY/MOUSE IMAGING FACILITY provides intramural investigators with intellectual, technical, and material support for human and animal imaging studies. The MRI Research Facility is equipped with a 1.5 T human MRI system and a 4.7 T animal MRI system. The Mouse Imaging Facility's resources include magnetic resonance imaging, high frequency ultrasound, computed tomography, laser Doppler blood flow imaging and positron emission tomography. |
