Western U Core Facilities

Overview of Services

At WesternU, our core facilities provide support to all who need them. We currently have two cores open to the public:

1. Molecular Computing leverages advanced computational modeling and AI to drive drug discovery and uncover how protein structure, function, and dynamics influence health and disease.

2. Biostatistics: Whether you’re working with flow cytometry data, survival curves, or gene networks, biostatistics is the key to unlocking the full potential of your research.
