RESEARCH SERVICE PROVIDERS

Wide collage of photographs showing biotechnology research activities. Images include researchers operating microscopes and laboratory instruments, pipetting samples, viewing data on computer monitors, handling microchips and sequencing devices, and working with imaging equipment. The photos are arranged in two horizontal rows on a teal background, representing diverse biotechnology and lab research workflows.

Core Facilities

BIOINFORMATICS

BIOINFORMATICS
Computer monitor displaying a genomic data visualization with tracks, charts, and read alignments. A hand holding a pencil points to a section of the data on the screen, highlighting specific regions. The image suggests analysis or review of bioinformatics or genome sequencing results.

CryoEM

CRYOEM
Laboratory room housing a large Cryo‑electron microscope system. The image shows a tall, enclosed microscope column with attached control cabinets and electronics, positioned in a dedicated instrument room. A large cryogenic liquid nitrogen dewar stands nearby, along with cables, control panels, and safety equipment.

FLOW CYTOMETRY

FLOW CYTOMETRY
Close‑up of a gloved hand inserting small clear sample tubes containing blue liquid into a laboratory instrument. The tubes are held in a black rack positioned inside the device, which is illuminated with blue light. Warning symbols appear on the instrument housing, indicating a controlled analytical process used for laboratory sample analysis or preparation.

MICROSCOPY

MICROSCOPY
Laboratory image showing a researcher using a Nikon inverted microscope. The person is looking through the eyepieces while adjusting controls on the microscope stage. A computer monitor behind the microscope displays a colorful fluorescence microscopy image of biological samples. The scene illustrates hands‑on optical imaging and data visualization in a research laboratory environment.

PROTEOMICS AND METABOLOMICS

PROTEOMICS AND METABOLOMICS
Close‑up of an automated laboratory sample handling system loading small glass vials capped in blue into a tray. Dozens of vials are arranged in a grid on a benchtop carrier while a robotic arm positions above them. The setup indicates high‑throughput sample preparation or analysis, commonly used in proteomics or metabolomics workflows.

SINGLE CELL GENOMICS

SINGLE CELL GENOMICS
Close‑up of gloved hands inserting a perforated sample cartridge into a benchtop instrument labeled “Chromium X” by 10x Genomics. The device has a touchscreen display and an open tray holding the cartridge. The instrument sits on a laboratory bench, indicating preparation or loading of samples for single‑cell genomic analysis.

NEBRASKA CENTER FOR BIOTECHNOLOGY

The Nebraska Center for Biotechnology provides state-of-the-art technologies for research through core facilities, provides training to faculty, students, and staff through workshops and short courses, and awards student fellowships and scholarships. Currently, we offer core facilities for Bioinformatics, CryoEM, Flow Cytometry, Microscopy, Proteomics/Metabolomics, and Single Cell Genomics.
