Rates

UNC Investigator Service Offering Rates

The Translational Genomics Lab (TGL) is a UNC School of Medicine recharge core facility whose rates are calculated and approved by the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) on a two-year cycle. Our rates are subsidized as part of UNC Lineberger’s University Cancer Research Fund (UCRF) budget and are the same for all UNC investigators.

Although our primary focus is supporting internal cancer related projects, we do occasionally support external projects if they align with current goals of the cancer center. For information about our external rates, please email lccctgl@unc.edu.

These rates are intended to provide you with a rough idea of our costs. The specifics of your project will be discussed during our consultation and a full estimate will be provided along with a statement of work.
