Microsurgery Core



Director: Timothy O’Connell, PhD

Staff: Quan Chen

The Micros urgery Core was designed as a central resource for the creation of mouse models such as Myocardial Infarction (MI), Transverse Aortic Constriction (TAC), and Ischemia/reperfusion to serve a variety of investigators with interest in cardiovascular disease and diabetic related heart disease.


This core combines surgical skill with knowledge of mouse pathophysiology, and provides a unique and valuable resource for the study of cardiovascular disease.
