Core facility that provides the following services: Cigarette smoke exposure analysis service.

Our lab is interested in the innate immune system at the mucosal surfaces of the female reproductive and respiratory tracts. A special focus of this work is to determine the effects of cigarette smoke on changes in immune protection. The relationship of cigarette smoke exposure to increased risk of infection is well established, however the mechanisms involved are not. Our research shows that cigarette smoke exposure reduces production of a key antimicrobial chemokine, CCL20. Ongoing research in the lab seeks to determine if similar responses to cigarette smoke exposure underlie increased rates of infection and how cigarette smoke exposure associated infection is linked to the development of cancer. Consulting; training; planning; experimental management assistance. Banked tissue samples available for preliminary studies. Small animal cigarette exposure.

The National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network?s computational activity (NNIN/C) is the computational counterpart of the NNIN experimental initiative. Like the NNIN experimental program, NNIN/C is a multi-university initiative, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). Harvard University serves as the coordinating hub of NNIN/C, the object of which is to establish a national computing resource that provides hardware resources and simulation tools dedicated to nanoscience research for the academic and industrial research communities. Strong technical and scientific support is provided by staff experts so that the tools and resources can benefit interdisciplinary research. The software tools include commercial software packages for design, characterization and analysis of nanometer scale devices as well as some of the latest academic advances in nanoscale modeling and simulation software. The goals and strategies of NNIN/C are: * Assemble and create a wide suite of robust software that addresses critical issues related to the physical, chemical, and biological properties of artificial and natural nanoscale structures. * Maintain and, where necessary, modify these simulations to address a broad range of research problems. * Provide strong technical support and thorough instruction on the software tools so that even novice users can rapidly develop solutions to their own unique research problems. * Provide web-based graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for user-friendly access to simulation tools as well as web-based resources for instruction and feedback to the community of researchers employing the same tools
