A Resource forTranslational Research

The Translational Cell Therapy Shared Resource provides translational research support services to Cancer Center members interested in pre-clinical and clinical research involving the development of therapies using biologic products including the large-scale production of human cells. In addition, it offers investigators a wide array of immune monitoring assays to assess the in vivo effects of novel experimental therapies in patients.

Our Goals

The goals of the Translational Cell Therapy Shared Resource are to:

• Develop and perform state-of-the-art immune monitoring assays for clinical trials
• Collaborate with investigators to develop GMP cell processing protocols for clinical trials
• Provide large-scale blood, marrow and cord blood cell separation, manipulation and culture facilities for basic research
