Welcome!
COM-Phoenix Shared Equipment is composed of the Biological Irradiator and Imager shared equipment resource, the Seahorse XF, and the Neurocircuits & Behavior Core.
Neurocircuits and Behavior Shared Resource
The Neurocircuits and Behavior Shared Resource provides state-of-the-art equipment, resources, and training to support the comprehensive assessment of cognitive, sensory, motor, and affective behaviors in preclinical models. Whether working with transgenic mouse models, evaluating novel therapeutics, or investigating brain-behavior relationships, researchers can access a broad array of validated behavioral assays designed to yield high-quality, reproducible data. Complementing these capabilities are advanced in vivo neural activity monitoring and manipulation technologies, precision stereotactic surgery systems, high-resolution imaging platforms, and integrated video tracking software for robust data analysis.
To reserve equipment and resources, please access the "Schedule Equipment" section of this webpage.
Please contact Dr. Ayanabha Chakraborti (chakrabortia@arizona.edu) for training & questions.
Single Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Core
The Single Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Core provides advanced technologies for mapping gene expression within intact tissue. Our spatial transcriptomics platforms include 10x Genomics Visium HD for high-resolution whole-transcriptome spatial profiling and Xenium In Situ for high-plex, single-cell and subcellular gene-expression imaging. We support investigators with experimental design, tissue preparation, data generation, and computational analysis to reveal how cell types, molecular states, and tissue architecture are organized in health and disease.
Please contact Dr. Shenfeng Qiu (sqiu@arizona.edu) for training & questions
Biological Irradiator and Imager
The Biological Irradiator and Imager shared equipment resource also known as XRAD 320 provides access to x-ray irradiation and x-ray and luminescence imaging on the Phoenix Bioscience Core. This resource is sponsored by the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix and the University of Arizona Cancer Center.

The overall mission of the Research Office is to support the research enterprise of the College of Medicine–Phoenix, stimulating all types of research and growing the sponsored projects portfolio by providing all forms of research infrastructure and resources. Our Research Cores are a direct reflection of that mission in as much as they provide centralized access to specialized, state-of-the art and high end instrumentation, with expert scientific leadership for experimental design, training and analysis to meet the needs of the research community.
