Join us for our first annual Cores Day where we’ll showcase the exceptional biomedical research resources and services available. This event offers a unique opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to connect with a wide range of research core facilities. Your attendance is a meaningful way to show support for the vital work of our cores.
Food and refreshments will be provided.
Explore what each core has to offer through informational tables staffed by our expert core facility team. Take this opportunity to ask questions, gain valuable insights, and learn about the resources available to support your research goals. Additionally, several Core Directors will give live presentations, highlighting the remarkable services offered by their facilities. Many of our cores will offer exclusive opportunities for attendees to save on services when they visit their booths.
This day is dedicated to fostering collaboration and building connections within our research community. It’s an ideal platform to discover the advanced tools and technologies that power biomedical research at Weill Cornell Medicine.
Information regarding the presentations will be added to our website closer to the event.
