The David H. Murdock Research Institute (DHMRI) is a catalyst for major scientific discoveries in health and nutrition. With a goal to excel breakthrough research, DHMRI facilities and capabilities are available to private companies, universities, and governmental organizations located on or off the NCRC.
DHMRI, which is housed within the 311,000-square-foot David H. Murdock Core Laboratory Building, offers a customer-focused and collaborative environment that maximizes the power and potential of its scientific capabilities, especially in the study of genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. The DHMRI's capabilities range from next-generation sequencing to cutting-edge confocal imaging and the world's first actively shielded 950 MHz NMR, which is picture above. DHMRI is one of the first institutes to house such a unique collection of state-of-the-art instrumentation in one central location.
DHMRI, a non-profit research institute, has interests that range from biological characterization to biomarker discovery, but include the flexibility to combine a broad spectrum of techniques to develop unique solutions to complex biological problems. Areas of expertise include:
- Agriculture
- Food and nutrition
- Health
- Customized solutions
To support these research initiatives, the DHMRI leverages a variety of focus areas to provide in-depth characterization and evaluation at the cell, tissue, organ, and whole organism levels including:
- Genomic sciences
- DNA
- RNA
- Epigenomics
- Analytical sciences
- Biochemistry
- Proteins
- Metabolites
- Analytes
- Structural analysis
- Small molecule
- Protein
- Chemical quantitation
- Immune Monitoring and Analysis
- Bioimaging
- Cellular analysis
- Spatial imaging and quantitative analysis
