The stem cell core facility at Bangalore Life Science Cluster (BLiSc) (headed by Dr. Deepti Abbey) is a shared research facility that provides services and training, for research using human pluripotent stem cells. We provide services and shared space in a stem cell facility, needed to culture, edit and image stem cells. Our services include derivation of iPSCs, genome engineering of stem cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, and lineage-specific differentiation of iPSCs/hESCs. We have high-end infrastructure including vertical and horizontal biosafety cabinets, fluorescent and live microscopes, sorters, tri-gas incubators, cell counters and nucleofectors.
We offer basic and advanced level comprehensive trainings for researchers interested in incorporating stem cell and genome editing experiments into their projects. We look forward to initiate custom projects and collaborations, for research involving pluripotent stem cells.
