The overarching goal of this Enrichment Program is to enhance scientific knowledge exchange among investigators currently involved in, or wishing to become involved in, NIDDK hematology research relevant areas.
Yale Cooperative Center of Excellence in Hematology (YCCEH)
The purpose of the Yale Cooperative Center of Excellence in Hematology is to enhance research in blood diseases by facilitating synergy between many different scientists both within Yale and at multiple academic institutions across the country.
The Center helps these scientists by providing access to and training in state-of-the-art technologies via 3 Technology Cores, Pilot and Feasibility Funding, and an Enrichment Program. Our unique focus is the application of emerging technologies to better understand blood diseases. The center plays a key role in the integrated program of blood disease research supported by other Cooperative Hematology Specialized Core Centers by providing opportunities to increase interactions and collaborations.
Cores
YCCEH Enrichment Core Cell Preparation and Analysis Core The Cell Preparation and Analysis Core provides essential and emerging technologies in hematology and relevant training for junior investigators, thus considerably increasing research efficiency, reducing expense, and saving valuable investigator time to achieve better advancement of hematologic research.Read MoreAnimal Modeling Core The Animal Modeling Core provides access to state of the art technologies for in vivo Hematology research. Specifically, this core provides access to immunodeficient mouse models for engraftment of primary human cells, and state of the art technologies to generate genetically modified mice, as well as teaching, expertise, and technical support for the study of hematopoiesis and hematologic questions in in vivo mouse models.Read MoreImaging Core The Imaging Core provides access to and training in the use of imaging technology in hematology both locally and nationally.Read More
