# Core C: Genomics & Bioinformatics Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · WEILL MEDICAL COLL OF CORNELL UNIV · 2021 · $375,631

## Abstract

ABSTRACT
The genomics and bioinformatics core (GBC) will provide the projects with centralized facilities, equipment and
expertise for whole-exome sequencing, transcriptome sequencing, single cell RNAseq, plasma DNA
sequencing, ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq. All research projects will use the GBC. The GBC will be led by two co-
PIs with complementary expertise, Dr Elemento and Dr Mason. The GBC will provide four main types of
services: 1) integrated whole-exome sequencing and transcriptome sequencing of clinical samples and cell
lines, 2) integrated epigenomic profiling of clinical and research samples using ERRBS, ChIPseq and ATAC-
seq, 3) single cell profiling and plasma DNA monitoring and 4) to perform integrative analysis and facilitate
data sharing among P01 projects and cores. The Core co-PIs and their laboratories are highly proficient in all
the proposed techniques and assays, with a combined 200 and more publications. Whenever possible, the
GBC will use the analytical pipeline used at Weill Cornell’s Institute for Precision Medicine for its CLIA/CLEP
assays.
