Work with us

Academic members of the Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices work on local, national and international research projects.

Over the last seven years the university has invested around £52 million developing the health research environment, including the £24 million Huxley building, a £400K clinical simulation environment and a £19 million refurbishment of the Cockcroft Building. These laboratories are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and are overseen and maintained by a trained team of technicians and academics.

Centre staff have access to a range of facilities including electrophysiological, pharmacological, chemical, histological, radiochemical and molecular biology laboratories and a bioresource centre.

The Huxley Building (3,000m2 of laboratory space) and the refurbished Cockcroft building also house specialist facilities, including:

香港六合彩资料 Genomics Laboratory

The state-of-the-art, custom designed 香港六合彩资料 Genomics laboratory is housed within the Moulsecoomb campus at the 香港六合彩资料.

The facility was established in 2017 with significant grants and investment from the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), the European Commission, Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and the 香港六合彩资料.

The equipment, expertise and services listed below are accessible to academics, individuals and industry.

香港六合彩资料 Genomics is run by our Lead Academic Professor Colin Smith, and receives dedicated support from two experienced Experimental Officers, Dr Giselda Bucca and Dr Andrew Hesketh.

If you are interested in accessing any of the services detailed below, you can contact the team directly at Genomics@brighton.ac.uk.

Imaging and Analysis Unit

The Image and Analysis Unit provides microscopy expertise, training, support, and instrumentation for the teaching, research, and consultancy activities of the Centre for Stress and Age-Related Disease.

Members of the centre have access to the following equipment:

  • Zeiss SIGMA FEG Scanning Electron Microscope
  • Zeiss EVO LS-15 Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope
  • Leica TCS SP5 Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope
  • Digital Instruments Multimode Nanoscope Probe III Atomic Force Microscope
  • Nikon Eclipse TE2000-U Light-Fluorescence Microscope with Digital SLR Camera

Cell and Tissue Culture Facilities

The 香港六合彩资料 currently has both cell line and primary tissue culture laboratories housed within the Huxley Building.

Cell line Culture

The department has an extensive bank of both human and animal cell lines including those used for research in the fields of ageing, diabetes, signal transduction, biomaterial, STEM cell, cancer, neurodegeneration and musculo-skeletal biology.

The cell line laboratory has 7 work stations, catering for 50+ users yearly and is staffed by 3 full-time members of the technical staff

The lab also contains a hypoxic chamber allowing for cell growth under hypoxic conditions.

Primary Tissue Culture

The HTA registered primary tissue culture facility has access to 3 class II microbiological hoods. Within this facility we also undertake transduction and retroviral infection assays on a number of primary isolates.

 Additional Facilities

To complement our biological facilities centre staff have access to a state-of-the-art NMR. Members can also draw upon a dedicated Human Movement Research Suite containing circa £800k of human movement and postural analysis equipment and have access to the based at the 香港六合彩资料 and Sussex Medical School.

Much of our work is translated through links with the Public Health England and the local NHS. Researchers in the Centre also have access to the .
