Core Facilities

The Faculty of Medicine has Central Core Facilities and participates in the large-scale equipment and technology platforms of the individual research institutions on the Life Science Campus Cologne. Equipment and associated services are made available on request to scientists and cooperation partners from the Faculty, university and external organisations. This infrastructure creates synergies with the aim of utilising resources jointly, promoting interdisciplinary cooperation and strengthening scientific performance at the Cologne site.

Information Session: Flow Cytometry Core Facility

The Flow Cytometry Core Facility is a central facility of the Faculty of Medicine that provides cell sorting and analysis services to all research groups at the University of Cologne, regardless of their affiliation. To mark the opening of the new facility, we would like to take this opportunity to provide information about the services we offer, the available equipment, and how to use the facility. Following this, Markus Geilich (Sony) will provide insights into the possibilities of spectral flow cytometry.

Central Core Facilities

Our core facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and are operated by experts. This gives researchers access to state-of-the-art technologies, qualified advice on scientific issues and much more. The range of Central Core Facilities is currently under construction and is being continuously expanded. It is worth checking back regularly.

Further information on the services offered, fees and contact persons can be found on the page of the respective Core Facility. General information on the structure and organization of the Central Core Facilities can be found here!
