Cellular Screening
The goal of the Institute for Genomics & Systems Biology (IGSB) is to accelerate the transition of basic discoveries in genome science into practical benefits for society. The Institute's Cellular Screening Center (CSC) houses a state-of-the art high throughput cellular screening facility. Support from the Chicago Biomedical Consortium and The University of Chicago Biological Sciences Division enabled the creation of the CSC. The CSC facilitates drug discovery and development by defining the complex genetics underlying disease, isolating chemical compounds that affect specific cellular activities, and developing potential therapeutics to target disease pathways.
