Facilities

Molecular Interactions Facility

The UCL Molecular Interactions Facility has its own on-site instrumentation in terms of two analytical ultracentrifuges (AUC), surface plasmon resonance (Biacore X100) and dual polarisation interferometry (DPI), plus protein purification facilities.

ISMB Protein Crystallography and Biophysics Centre

The UCL/Birkbeck ISMB Protein Crystallography and Biophysics Centre has a variety of equipment is available for sample characterisation and optimisation, crystallisation, crystal monitoring as well as for equilibrium and kinetic studies of proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules and their interactions. 

Fish Facility

The UCL zebrafish facility is currently comprised of four separate multi-rack systems and several standalone and bench top systems housed in five separate rooms. 

UCLH Neurogenetics Laboratory

This laboratory conducts ground-breaking research on Neurogenetics and Rare Diseases with expertise in long-read sequencing and identification of repeat disease genes and hosts a DNA bank that holds over 110,000 samples.

Imaging

Imaging facilities at UCL ensure researchers have timely access to equipment, resources and expertise necessary to undertake world-leading research.

UCL GeneTxNeuro Vector Core Facility

Based at the School of Pharmacy, the UCL GeneTxNeuro Vector Core Facility can help with the production of research-grade viral vector batches.

Centre for Cardiovascular and Metabolic Neuroscience

The UCL Centre for Cardiovascular and Metabolic Neuroscience brings together research groups conducting basic and clinical studies directed at understanding the role of neural mechanisms in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic disease.
