Research Facilities
Core Facilities
The University maintains core facilities available to students in MCB program laboratories. These cores provide access and expertise for state-of-the-art equipment that may be too costly to be maintained by individual laboratories. Facilities include centers for microscopic imaging, mass spectrometry for proteomics, DNA microarray analysis, DNA sequencing, and more. For a complete listing of cores and capabilities see:

Laufer Center for Physical and Quantitative Biology
The Louis and Beatrice Laufer Center is a hub for research in Physical and Quantitative Biology at Stony Brook University. We aim to advance biology and medicine through discoveries in physics, mathematics and computational science. Our research is diverse. Laufer Center researchers insert gene circuits into cells and study noise. We insert barcodes to study evolution, cell-by-cell. Some of us use computational modeling to understand how proteins fold and how proteins bind to proteins and design drugs for high-affinity binding to proteins. We explore how protein motions cause biological mechanisms and how proteins aggregate in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. And, some of us use computers to design vaccines.Laufer Center researchers come from a broad community including Stony Brook departments of chemistry, physics, applied mathematics and statistics, computer science, molecular genetics and microbiology as well as Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.

Medical and Research Translation
The Medical and Research Translation (MART) building is a transformative model for cancer research and treatment, providing an ideal environment for researchers and doctors to collaborate, investigate and innovate in developing breakthrough cancer medicines, treatments and cures. The eight-story, 240,000-square-foot MART is the only facility of its kind on Long Island, with four floors dedicated solely to research. The outpatient cancer treatment area for adults and children will occupy two floors. The MART is adjacent to Stony Brook University Hospital, including the new 10-story Hospital Pavilion and the new Stony Brook Children’s Hospital, offering exceptional opportunities to bring researchers and clinicians together in a synergistic, collaborative environment to develop breakthrough medicines, treatments and cures.
