NCI Cancer Center Support Grant: Shared Resources
Shared resources at the University of Arizona Cancer Center are laboratory services provided to cancer center members at a discounted rate, but also open to researchers in the broader U of A community and beyond. These labs are managed with the goal of facilitating a convergent multidisciplinary approach to cancer research. They allow for researchers to collaborate with our experts for experimental design and extraction of data with seamless transfer from one cancer center affiliate shared resource to the next.
Have an idea, but not sure how best to execute it?
Set up a consultation with our shared resource managers to get advice on how the services they offer might enhance the work you're doing.

Grants and Publications
To use a UACC shared resource in your grant submission, please contact the shared resource director(s) and/or manager for quotes and a letter of support. iLabs pricing should only be used for estimates and needs to be verified with the shared resource.
Please remember to acknowledge the Cancer Center Support Grant (P30 CA023074) when publishing manuscripts or abstracts that have used these services. Suggested language: "Research reported in this [publication/press release] was supported by the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health under award number P30 CA023074."
NCI-Supported (P30 CCSG) Shared Resources
The mission of the University of Arizona Cancer Center Analytical Chemistry Shared Resource (ACSR) is to provide Cancer Center investigators with centralized resources and expertise in performing analytical chemistry assays; metabolomics and lipidomics; and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data analysis and interpretation.
The Behavioral Measurement and Interventions Shared Resource (BMISR) has more than 25 years of experience providing support to University of Arizona Cancer Center members and other University and national researchers studying human lifestyle behaviors related to cancer prevention and control.
The UACC Biospecimen Core provides central support for researchers needing tissue materials for research on a fee-for-service basis. We provide a mechanism to simplify and streamline the process of research tissue accrual and disbursment. We maximize research dollars through customized, cost-effective, and quality-controlled services.
The Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Shared Resource (BBSR) at the University of Arizona Cancer Center brings together expertise in experimental design, statistical analysis, genomic and proteomic analysis, biologic pathway analysis, clinical trials, statistical computing, and database applications.
The Experimental Mouse Shared Resource (EMSR) has provided expertise to the University of Arizona Cancer Center and outside investigators since 1993.
The Flow Cytometry & Human Immune Monitoring Shared Resource at the University of Arizona Cancer Center supports the research needs of all Cancer Center members by providing state-of-the-art instrumentation for data acquisition, analysis, and cell sorting, and the technical expertise to interpret results, and develop methods.
The Tissue Acquisition and Cellular / Molecular Analysis Shared Resource (TACMASR) provides support and pathology-related services to University of Arizona Cancer Center and University of Arizona researchers on a fee-for-service basis. We strive to maximize research dollars through customized, cost-effective, and quality-controlled services.
The microscopy core at the UACC is a developing advanced microscopy facility for all UA researchers, with an emphasis on serving the immediate needs and future demands of biomedical and translational scientists. This developing shared resource will be established after the acquisition of several multimodal Nikon microscopy platforms.
Equipment and services available for the development and analysis of biomarkers can be found in many of the Shared Resources at the University of Arizona Cancer Center. This page provides a centralized location where you will find descriptions and links to all available resources for biomarker research, regardless of the umbrella under which they've been subsumed.
