TMC Digestive Disease Center Core Facilities

NIH-funded Silvio O Conte Digestive Diseases Research Core Center is located in the Texas Medical Center of Houston, Texas. It was formalized in 2001, with NIDDK support to promote, facilitate and enhance the advancement of science and gastrointestinal related research through formal interactions among research and training units at participating institutions in the TMC. 

The DDC assists GI researchers by organizing core facilities that provide expert services, assays, and advice that are not readily available. To request services from any of our cores, visit our iLab Solutions portal.
