Two of NDSU’s research laboratories have scheduled concurrent open house sessions Tuesday, Oct. 1, from noon to 3 p.m. Students, faculty and staff are invited to tour the labs, watch demonstrations of key equipment and enjoy refreshments.
The facilities are available to scientists for research, data analysis, consultations and teaching purposes. Both labs were established with funding from the National Institutes of Health and are operated by the Center for Protease Research.
The Core Biology Facility, in IACC 316 and IACC 354, was established in 2003. It provides state-of-the-art equipment and technical support for molecular biology applications, bioassay development/analysis and cell biology techniques. The manager, Tao Wang, will be available for technical training and consultations.
The Core Synthesis and Analytical Services Facility, in Dunbar 156, was established in 2008 to assist with principal investigator’s research by providing synthetic and analytical services. Ganesh Bala, facility manager, will be available for tours and questions, and also will be demonstrating equipment during the open house.
