General Information
The Life Sciences Core Facilities provides a wide range of scientific and technical services and support to life sciences researchers throughout the Weizmann Institute. The Department’s primary goal is to provide access to resources that could not be provided by any single researcher’s laboratory or scientific department.
The Department is divided into a number of Units, each providing service and support in a focused area. Their operations run the gamut from operating specialized machinery, to helping with hardware and software for data analysis. Depending on the Unit, researchers can obtain processing of their samples, consulting on work to be done in their own lab, training in advanced technologies, or other specialized support.

Comments
The DNA Sequencing Facility is open 5 days a week. People who need any type of help from a member of the lab should come from the hours of 10:30-12:00 or from 14:30- 15:30.
Samples for sequencing should be brought during 08:00-15:30 to the freezer in our lab. After work hours you can put samples in a mail box out of Levine building.
