ECGC

ECGC Logo

The Experimental and Computational Genomics Core (ECGC) integrates all the Cancer Genomics services in the SKCCC next generation sequencing, microarrays, bioinformatics, and genomics education. The primary mission of the shared resource is to allow investigators to harness the ongoing revolution in cancer genomics to accelerate their basic discovery and translational research.

Start a Project with ECGC and Request a Consult

ECGC holds consultation meetings every Friday, from 10 AM to Noon, via Teams. Meetings are by appointment only. If you would like to initiate a project, please schedule a consult meeting via the link below. 

Areas of Expertise:

Gene Expression Analysis, Proteomics, Microarray Design, Gene Function Analysis, Cancer Risk Prediction, Gene Regulation, Sequence Alignment, Modeling of Signaling Pathways, Transposon Biology 

Other Interactions:

Microarray Core, Mass Spectrometry Core, and Research Information Technology Shared Resource, SPORES, program project grants.

Services Provided:

  • Assist with data acquisition, including study design, access to public data sources and genomic annotation databases and data storage.
  • Statistical quality control for data from high throughput genomic technologies, including data preprocessing, and artifact discovery.
  • Data analysis, including visualization and biostatistical modeling.
  • Assist with grant and manuscript preparation, and software development.
  • Technical support for bioinformatic software, databases and technologies.
  • Development of innovative bioinformatic methodologies and tools.
  • Mentor faculty, fellows and students with interest in bioinformatics research.

Bioinformatics

Dr. Leslie Cope leads the shared resource in methods development and analyses of high-throughput cancer datasets, including computational methods to handle molecular profiling, spatial molecular and imaging technologies.  

The goal of the Bioinformatics consulting service is to help investigators that use genomic technologies to identify study designs, database solutions, data analysis strategies, and appropriate bioinformatics collaborations for their projects.
