Welcome to the University of Miami's iLab page!

The University of Miami was established in 1925 and is highly recognized for it's significant contribution to research.
The university's mission is to educate and nurture students, to create knowledge, and to provide service to our community and beyond.

What is a core facility?

Core facilities allow centralized access to specialized equipment and services, providing cutting-edge technologies, reagents, and special products needed to conduct high-quality, interdisciplinary research in a cost-effective way.
Core facilities at the University of Miami are found across three campuses, Coral Gables, Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine, and RSMAS.

Resources:

  • The Association of Biomolecular Resources (ABRF) guide provides useful practices for core laboratories in acknowledging contributions from core facilities in publications.
