This page contains information and links to some of the world class technical facilities available at the University of Edinburgh. The University of Edinburgh has developed world class facilities to support a wide variety of infectious disease research, including state of the art genome sequencing, bioinformatics, protein expression and analysis, and whole body imaging. Some of the facilities give support only and others provide a complete user service. The page below has links to more information about each of the major facilities, giving further details of the equipment and services they provide.
