Chemistry and Synthesis Center (CSC) (formerly known as Imaging Probe Development Center-IPDC)
For 14 years the Chemistry and Synthesis Center (formerly known as IPDC) has provided probes for biological research within the NIH Intramural community and their collaborators. As the demand for chemical support of research has changed over the years, the Chemistry and Synthesis Center has broadened its’ offerings.
In general, the CSC prepares 3-10 compounds per project and provides initial compounds within 3 to 6 months. In order to more accurately reflect the capabilities of the core facility, a name change was initiated.
