The Geoffrey Beene Cancer Research Center provides support for the Geoffrey Beene Translational Oncology Core Facility, the Microchemistry and Proteomics Core Facility, and the Genomics Core Facility.
Directed by Charles Sawyers, Chair of the Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program within Memorial Hospital, the Geoffrey Beene Translational Oncology Core was established in 2007 to take full advantage of the wealth of clinical samples and the emerging information issuing from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center clinical trials by applying state-of-the art genome-scale molecular profiling technologies.
The Microchemistry and Proteomics Core focuses on transcriptional regulation and ties together molecular, developmental, and cellular science.
The Genomics Core is the Microarray Core Facility of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Its specialty is the processing of very small samples for the Affymetrix array.
