Gene Vector and Virus Core (GVVC)

Virally mediated molecular manipulations allow unprecedented experimental control over synapses, cells and circuits in model systems as well as in vivo in the mammalian brain.

To facilitate the use of these state-of-the-art methodologies by Stanford neuroscientists, the Gene Vector and Virus Core centralizes the process of producing and distributing viral vectors and cDNA plasmids. This benefits the Wu Tsai Neuro community by preventing the duplication of efforts by Stanford faculty and thus greatly increasing the efficiency of all of our programs.
