The Cell Imaging and Analysis Network (CIAN) provides services and tools to researchers in the field of cell biology from within or outside Montreal's McGill University community. CIAN is composed of six scientific platforms: Cell Imaging (confocal and fluorescence microscopy; walk-up), Proteomics (2-D, DiGE and fluorescent protein analysis; walk-up), Automation and High throughput screening (Pinning robot and liquid handler; full service), Protein expression and antibody production (in collaboration with local animal facilities; full service), Genomics (real-time PCR; walk-up), and Data storage/analysis (cluster, server and workstations). Users get in-depth consultation for proposed projects, and can obtain training in any of the walk-up aspects of the facility, or take advantage of the full-service platforms. CIAN is designed to facilitate training, enhance interactions, as well as share and maintain resources and expertise.
