SHARED RESOURCES
The Shared Resource (SR) program within the Purdue Institute for Cancer Research (PICR) is a vital component in advancing cutting-edge cancer research. These institute-sponsored facilities provide PICR investigators with access to state-of-the-art technologies, specialized services, and expert support that enhance scientific interaction and productivity.
FACILITIES AND SERVICES
PICR shared resources
The Purdue Institute for Cancer Research is the nucleus of the university’s on-campus and partner cancer research community. We foster close interactions among scientists in understanding aspects of chemical and structural biology, cell signaling, gene regulation, and effective targeting and delivery mechanisms for new anti-cancer agents. The shared resource’s role is to assist investigators from the institute’s scientific programs who are seeking novel approaches to addressing key cancer problems. By enabling groundbreaking discoveries and facilitating interdisciplinary collaborations, the SRs strengthen the quality and impact of cancer-relevant research conducted by our members. Explore below to see the resources we offer.
Enhancing research through collaborative shared facilities
In addition to institute facilities and Purdue-affiliated facilities, we also have a collaborative, partnership agreement to offer center-supported shared resources at internal rates. The Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center has a number of facilities that support cancer research.
Check out what shared facilities the IU Simon Cancer Center has to offer institute members.
Common equipment
The X-RAD320 is shared equipment at the Purdue Institute for Cancer Research that can be used for X-ray irradiation of cells and mice.
Located on the fourth floor of the Hansen Life Sciences building, it is a campuswide resource and offered free of charge.
