SECIM Cores
Mission
SECIM provides state-of-the-art metabolomics services to users in all areas of biomedical and biological sciences. Several technologies contribute to the SECIM pipeline, giving users the flexibility to choose the best approach for a particular problem. New metabolomics technologies will be regularly added and integrated into SECIM. SECIM also provides educational opportunities to help create the next generation of metabolomics experts.
Funding
SECIM is funded by the NIH Common Fund’s Metabolomics program, which has established a consortium of six Regional Comprehensive Metabolomics Resource Cores (RCMRC) and a Data Repository to serve users across the United States. The other partners in the consortium are:
- West Coast Metabolomics Center (UC Davis: Oliver Fiehn, PI)
- Eastern Regional Comprehensive Metabolomics Resource Core (RTI International: Susan Sumner, PI)
- Michigan Regional Comprehensive Metabolomics Resource Core (University of Michigan: Charles Burant, PI)
- Resource Center for Stable Isotope-Resolved Metabolomics (University of Kentucky: Richard M. Higashi, PI)
- Metabolomics Core at Mayo Clinic (Mayo Clinic: K. Sreekumaran Nair, PI)
The RCMRC partners all work with a data repository at UCSD:
- UCSD Metabolomics Workbench (Shankar Subramaniam, PI)
Principal Investigator
- Dr. Richard A. Yost, Professor, Department of Chemistry, University of Florida
