Facilities

The Department of Medicine is directly affiliated with nine core facilities - explore further information about each of our facilities via the links below.

Biological Imaging Centre (BIC)

The Imperial College Biological Imaging Centre is a facility at Hammersmith Hospital. The Centre houses PET/CT, MRI and optical imaging (FMT and IVIS), supporting the scientific community to conduct cutting-edge translational research into in vivo disease models.

Carbohydrate Microarray Facility

The Carbohydrate Microarray Facility, housed in the Glycosciences laboratory, is a Wellcome Trust supported biomedical resource for the broad scientific community, providing microarray screening analyses and follow-on collaborations on diverse carbohydrate recognition systems.

CL3 Cell Sorting Facility

The Centre for Immunology and Vaccinology CL3 Cell Sorting Facility holds a state-of-the-art FACS Aria-III cell sorter that is located within a purpose-built robotic class II recirculating micro-biological class II safety cabinet, ideally suited to sort live cells infected with Hazard Group 3 pathogens.

Clinical Imaging Facility (CIF)

Provides the capability to investigate a wide range of clinical conditions using MRI, PET, electroencephalography (EEG) and transcranial brain stimulation, with particular expertise in neuroscience and oncology.

IMANOVA

IMANOVA is a unique translational imaging centre with established expertise in state-of-the-art molecular imaging techniques, preparation of radiopharmaceuticals, supporting drug development and clinical trials.

Imperial BRC Genomics Facility

Bringing together multidisciplinary expertise to offer access to state-of-the-art genome sequencing technologies, high-performance computing resources and cutting edge bioinformatics analysis of genomic data.
