"As researchers work to harness the power of the immune system to fight conditions such as cancer and to understand how to control autoimmune diseases including diabetes, many labs can benefit from specialized support. The Flow Cytometry and Human Immune Monitoring Shared Resource located in the University of Arizona Cancer Center can help provide highly sophisticated and detailed characterization of the immune system."
"'Truly understanding the immune system is not only powerful; it is critical," said Sara Centuori, PhD, director of the shared resource and research assistant professor of medicine at the College of Medicine – Tucson. 'Immune profiling is at the forefront of understanding why diseases affect who they affect, the way they behave, and why some therapeutics work for some people but don’t for others.'”
The Flow Cytometry portion of this Shared Resource is jointly supported by the UACC and the RII Core Facilities. For more information on the FC&HIMSR on this website, follow this link.
