CIL Team
CIL technicians pack samples in this many layers of packaging in order to comply with DFCI policy on external sample transport.
What is three?
The path team frequently stores tissue in this tissue storage facility in BWH. Tissue must be kept here or in a similarly CLIA-certified lab in order for any results to be returned to patients.
What is Crimson?
PMs facilitate this legal agreement which must be executed before any sample can be transferred between institutions
What is an MTA (material transfer agreement)?
This is the full name of the KCO, the group with which CCPM collaborates closely to perform single cell/single nucleus sequencing
What is Klarman Cell Observatory?
A sample that is NOT necrotic upon collection, has high viability and cell count, and is sequenced to show a large number of genes might be described this way.
What is excellent?
CIL technicians often use this marker when sorting cells before loading on the 10x platform, in order to select for immune or tumor cells.
What is CD45?
You can often find the path techs preparing to receive tissue in CSIR. What is the full name of this space?
What is cross-sectional interventional radiology?
PMs fill out a submission form for this database in order to send any fresh or frozen samples to KCO.
What is JIRA?
This is the field of study of Aviv Regev, the head of the KCO
What is computational biology/bioinformatics?
A sample that does not occur due to lack of patient consent, rescheduling, etc, may be described this way.
What is cancelled?
CIL technicians upload notes on every sample that they process using this website.
What is protocols.io?
Path techs occasionally send tissue that they have collected for this test, a panel of 300 genes. The results are returned to the patient's physician to inform care.
What is OncoPanel?
PMs request a quote from this Broad platform in order to submit samples for whole exome sequencing, bulkRNA sequencing, and more.
What is the Genomics Platform?
This is the name of the head of the Broad Institute
Who is Eric Lander?
This is a transparent wrapping material made from viscose that is NOT used in any CCPM collections.
What is cellophane?
CIL technicians use this buffer to remove red blood cells when processing tissue.
What is ACK?
This is the name CCPM pathology technician Becca Ortiz's cat.
Who is Sombra?
If a project needs an analyst, one can be assigned from this CCPM faculty laboratory
What is the Van Allen lab?
This is a place you could put a number of samples in your house, provided that it has a -80 freezer.
What is a cellar?
CIL technicians may use this machine at either at DFCI or Broad to sort samples into 96-well plates for future SmartSeq2 sequencing.
What is a FACS sorter?
What is an IRB?
This is a category created when one runs out of a logical next topic.
What is miscellaneous?
