[Histonet] Tissue Microarray Consultant Questions

[Thom]

Hi,

I have a question for everyone. I have been creating tissue microarrays for 20 years. I have constructed hundreds of TMAs of all sizes and tissue types. I also have several articles on TMA construction published in journals (listed below). I am wondering if there is a need for my expertise in either training technicians or creating TMAs for laboratory needs.


I can bring my own TMA instrument so no need to purchase your own equipment or I can use your TMA instrument. I have used different instruments over the years.



For example, I can come to your lab and construct the TMA blocks using your materials, cut as many slides as needed also teach your techs my techniques and processes during my visit.


Just wondering if there is a need for this type of consulting service?


Thanks for your time.
