Lab and Office Space

The CTBR of UNCG is housed on the 2nd floor of the NC State PHHI Building. One of the three original buildings completed in 2008 at the North Carolina Research Campus, it houses the NC State Plants for Human Health Institute, and research centers of three additional universities. The CTBR laboratory space is well equipped for both biomedical (pathology, biochemistry, and molecular biology) and bioanalytical (proteomics, metabolomics and lipidomics) studies, and is organized according to functional areas.
