Technology Platforms
The research activities of SynthImmune will require specialized technological support. The five technology platforms are key prerequisites for our research.
DNA/RNA Origami Facility
The DNA/RNA Origami Facility will provide expertise and training on the entire origami workflow from conceptualization to design, assembly, purification and characterization of DNA and RNA origami.
