## Abstract

Tissue Microarray & Imaging Shared Resource
Project Summary / Abstract
The Tissue Microarray and Imaging Shared Resource (TMI) facilitates translational research through the
discovery and validation of novel potential drug targets. This is accomplished by providing access to this
resource, as well as enabling computer-based image analysis and high-throughput nucleic acid extraction. The
Core is dedicated to the construction, imaging, and analysis of high-quality tissue microarrays for cancer
research, as well as high-throughput isolation of DNA and RNA from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues.
It is currently the only centralized facility within the DF/HCC community that is capable of constructing large-
scale, high-quality tissue microarrays. In summary, tissue microarrays enable large-scale, high-throughput in
situ analysis of gene and protein expression.
