# Core B: Human Tissue and Genomics Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL · 2020 · $258,000

## Abstract

Human Tissue and Genomics Core Summary
The overall objective of the Core is to provide resources and expertise to perform and analyze data
from gene expression, miRNA expression, ChIP-seq, and microbiota profiling assays that identify
disease-specific transcriptional patterns and shifts in microbiota abundance in tissue of patients with
IBD. Additionally, the Core will enable project investigators to perform functional validation in patient-
derived organoid experimental systems to substantiate and guide their hypotheses obtained in patient
samples and animal models. This will be facilitated through access to human samples from well-
characterized adult and pediatric IBD patients and controls.
