The Biopolymers Facility is a non-profit technology service
center in the Department of Genetics at Harvard Medical School. The investigators
at Harvard Medical School make up the primary client base of the BPF. Through
the University's partnerships with surrounding Hospitals and research
organizations we also serve labs throughout the entire Longwood Medical Area
(LMA). While the majority of our users are from the LMA we also serve labs
at schools, universities and biotechnology companies from all across the
country.
Our mission is to provide investigators with access to technology services
that will help them speed along their research programs while conserving
both time and money by not having to conduct the experiments within their
own labs. In addition, we provide a wide variety of the most popular reagents
and supplies for immediate pick up from our facility, in an effort to decrease
the amount of time it takes to go from an idea to an experiment while simultaneously
saving research funds through bulk pricing agreements and no shipping charges.
We strive to provide high quality data and a rapid turn around time for all
samples.
Services offered include DNA Sequencing, Genotyping, Affymetrix Gene Chips,
Custom Printed Microarrays, Oligonucleotide Ordering and Reagents and Supplies
Ordering. We have a comprehensive web based Laboratory Information Management
System (LIMS) which provides our users with access to order services and
supplies as well as retrieve data and review and pay invoices.
