HCS Core Research Facilities

"The goal of the Cores is to make Technology and expertise available to all faculty members and students."

Oversight Committee

While Dr. Kaplan and Dr. Phillips administer the core facilities, they are overseen by a faculty oversight committee. The committee is composed of members of various departments at the School of Medicine, and meets on average twice a year.

	Name	Title	Department
	David Jones, Ph.D.	Professor	Oncological Sciences
	Jerry Kaplan, Ph.D.	Professor	Pathology
	John Phillips, Ph.D.	Associate Professor	Pathology, Hematology
	Alejandro Sanchez Alvarado, Ph.D.	Associate Professor	Neurobiology, Anatomy
	David Stillman, Ph.D.	Professor	Pathology
	Wesley Sundquist, Ph.D.	Professor	Biochemistry
	Dennis Winge, Ph.D.	Professor	Hematology, Biochemistry
	Mark Yandell, Ph.D.	Associate Professor	Human Genetics
	Joseph Yost, Ph.D.	Professor	Neurobiology, Anatomy

The function of the committee is to evaluate the quality of existing cores, and to recommend both the creation of new cores and the termination of outdated ineffective cores. This is accomplished in part by periodic surveys of faculty needs. The most recent survey was conducted in January 2004. The oversight committee also provides a venue for discussion of the the operation of particular cores, free of conflicts of interest. Recommendations by the oversight committee are transmitted to Dr. Lorris Betz, Vice President/Dean of the Health Science Center.
