Welcome!
ALERT Dear researchers,
We are pleased to announce three new Research Resources Center (RRC) core facilities as part of our infrastructure for researchers within UIC and partner institutions. These new cores include the UIC Biorepository Core, Metabolic Phenotyping Core and Spatial and Genome Technologies Core. Each is led by a talented scientific director and faculty advisor, allowing researchers access to the most innovative tools and expertise for their research.
Recent economic and federal policy changes have introduced new challenges for university core facilities across the country. These have led to increased expenses and updated cost accounting calculations per university regulations. These new rates will take effect on July 1st, 2025, and will be reflected on the iLab and RRC websites. New service requests submitted on or after this date will be charged the new rates. Our RRC team remains ready to support investigators in finding the most cost-effective and impactful tools to meet their research needs during this period of change and in the future.
Finally, thank you for the crucial work you do to carry out successful research. The RRC remains committed to providing high quality services through the acquisition of new instruments, timely services and the expertise of our dedicated staff.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at rrcinfo@uic.edu.
COVID-19 UPDATE:
Research Resources Center (RRC) cores are back on campus to provide services and access to shared equipment (when possible), there are new guidelines issued by each core due to COVID19. Please reference each core’s new user guidelines before requesting services, projects, or scheduling equipment. All questions or inquiries must be sent by email to respective core.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Core facility is located in the Center for Structural Biology (CfSB) Building in a huge magnet hall optimally house a Bruker Avance III 600 MHz Spectrometer witha 13C DCH cryoprobe and a sample changer. The NMR Facility and staff are available for research support to investigators who want to use NMR for structural elucidation of small molecules and for the study of chemical and biological reactions. Assistance in the design of experiments and spectral analysis is available upon request. Hands-on training is available for long term users who want to have full access to the instrument, as well as assisted runs by a staff are offered to investigators who occasionally need to use core instrument.
