Medical Research Building |
The McCray
Lab is Located in room 240 Eckstein Medical Research Building
(EMRB) on the Health Sciences Campus of the University of Iowa.
This building is adjacent to several medical research laboratories
and facilities including Bowen Science Building, Medical Laboratories,
Medical Research Center, Medical Education and Biomedical Research
Facility, and Hardin Health Sciences Library. In addition to the
McCray Laboratory and shared core facilities of the Pediatric
Department, several core facilities are convieniently located
nearby.
|
| Center
for Gene Therapy |
The
Center for Gene Therapy fosters scientific advancement in gene therapy
by providing a focal point for gene therapy research at the University
of Iowa. |
| Animal
Care Facility |
|
| Central
Microscopy Research Facilities |
The
CMRF provides instrumentation and technical assistance to research
programs involving the use of light microscopy, scanning and transmission
electron microscopy, and x-ray microanalysis. |
| DNA
Facility |
The
DNA facility offers a variety of services and resources to assist
investigators in the use of modern recombinant DNA technology. Custom
DNA synthesis, sequencing, amplification by PCR, and enzymes and
reagents for recombinant DNA research and electroporation are among
the many services available. |
