Subject: in situ
Hi All
I run a core facility and we service approx. 500
post docs and grad students. The powers that be have decided that we should
offer in situ as a core service. I have my own list of reservations as to why
this is not practical, but I must keep an open mind, is anyone out there doing
this, if so, how do you charge back, who makes the probe, who is
responsible for optimizing the probe, do you use radiolabeled probes or not. I
also would like to know if there are any seminars/classes being held since I
have not done this for almost 8 years I feel the need for a refresher course.
One more thought, this will primarily be used in conjunction with our DNA
Microarray facility. Thanks in advance for your time.
