皇家华人 Physiology Core Services

Eleven individuals currently staff the RSC, each with significant experience in a broad range of activities that support the research infrastructure. The staff is divided into several groups: analytical and statistical consultation; chronic animal monitoring; histology, microscopy and image processing; custom machine and electronic fabrication; instrument service; and rat colony maintenance.

Systems management is a key element in sustaining large and complex research efforts. This concept is applied to maximize efficiency and flexibility in design and maintenance of research equipment and facilities used by researchers in the department. Integration of the various component parts of a research protocol into a reproducible and manageable system comes from combining experienced individuals of complementary skill sets to given design problems. The objective is to provide a technical infrastructure for the research programs from the laboratory bench to publication.
