How to use the Laser Capture Microdissection Service:
- Schedule an initial appointment with the service director or co-director to discuss your project, including what the ultimate downstream application will be and the general feasibility of your project.
- Sign-up for a three-hour training session to learn how to use the LCM. If you have frozen or paraffin sections of your sample prepared, you can use them during your training session. If not, we will provide tissue for you to use for training.
