Human Cell Line Identity Verification - Sample Submission
Consultation - If you think that it may be helpful, you may arrange for a consultation with the lab director by email (sigitas_verselis@dfci.harvard.edu) to discuss any questions that you may have.
Application for Services - An "Application for services" form is available for downloading and must be completed. Please ensure that all fields on the application are filled in. We will not process samples if information is missing. Comment fields and the embedded "project description" document are optional.
Please fill in the "Peoplesoft project # (Dana Farber)" field if your funds are administered by DFCI; fill in the "Purchase order # (outside institutions)" field if your funds are not administered by DFCI.
Please send an electronic version of the completed form as an email attachment to the lab director, Sig Verselis Ph.D.
Include a printed copy of the completed form with your samples when dropping them off.
Sample drop-off - The Sample Drop-off room is now located in the "fish room" on the 3rd floor bridge of the Smith Building leading to the Jimmy Fund Building at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. For DNA samples, place your 1.5mL Eppendorf tubes (with the sample name written on the top, and your initials written on the side) along with your printed application form, into a zip lock plastic bag available in the fish room and place on the top shelf in the +4°C refrigerator with glass doors.
You will need a Dana-Farber ID card to enter the room. If you do not have one, please go to the Security desk in the lobby of the Dana building and request to be escorted to the "fish room". The phone number for security is 617-632-3131 (extension 2-3131 within DFCI).
Results - When available, results will be emailed to the requesting investigator.
