*IMPORTANT!!              IMPORTANT!            IMPORTANT!!*

*Genomics Core facilities will be closed for the holidays from Monday Dec
23rd through Wednesday Jan 1st.*



*T**he following services within the Genomics Core will be unavailable
during this break:*



*1.Sanger DNA sequencing *- *Please note that samples received by 3PM
Wednesday Dec 18th will be posted by the 20th.*

Samples received after this time cannot be guaranteed to be posted via
Google link before the break begins. Any samples not posted before the
break will be processed upon re-opening on the 2nd.

*2. Illumina sequencing services –* You may keep submitting samples for QC
during the closure, please use the yellow rack in the -20.

*3.* *Bioanalyzer and Tapestation services*- these services will be
processed on a first come, first serve basis up until we leave for break on
the 20th.

*4. Illumina Library prep*



*Points to keep in mind:*



*1. Please plan your experiments in advance. *

*2. Access*. Those with key fobs to the instrumentation labs will have
access to instruments (qPCR, Typhoon, Nanodrop, Qubit, plate readers, Blue
Pippen, Covaris) during this time. As always, reserve or log your time
online prior to instrument use. *Remember to obtain your Covaris tubes
before the break.*

*3. Please be sure your key fob is current.* If you have not used it in
some time, please check it. If in doubt, ask Chantti or Aaliyah(room 1206,
1st floor of Genomics Building), so that you are not locked out during the
break.

*4. Security*. We cannot emphasize strongly enough that our security system
has two key components: Security zones with individual key fobs and YOU.
Security during the break is everyone's responsibility. *Please never prop
open external or internal doors or leave them ajar. NEVER admit anyone who
does not have a fob. NEVER admit anyone who you do not recognize!*  Think
of the impact on your research and that of your colleagues if we were
vandalized or there was a major theft.

*5. Please send an email directly to Wei Zhang (wezhang at ucr.edu
<wezhang at ucr.edu>), Clay Clark (clayc at ucr.edu <clayc at ucr.edu>) and/or Holly
Clark (holly.clark at ucr.edu <holly.clark at ucr.edu>) if you notice anything –
freezer alarms, propped doors, malfunctioning equipment, etc. *



*Thank you for all your support and have the very best holiday ever!*



*Your Genomics Core*
