ALERT * * * Happy Holidays from the iLab Support Team * * *
We are here to support you through the season, with holiday closures varying by region:
We're fully staffed on all other days and ready to assist!
For urgent matters:
Add “Urgent” to your ticket or email subject, or press “1” when prompted on the iLab Support phone and we will prioritize your request first.
Wishing you warmth, rest, and joyful moments this holiday season, wherever you are in the world!

The Translational Immunogenomics Laboratory (TIGL) was established to assist investigators at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) and its partners in advancing cancer immunotherapy research through state-of-the-art systems for molecular and cellular analysis of immune response to cancer therapeutics.
TIGL evaluates the latest developments in the field, implements the optimal protocol, and invents methods when current approaches are inadequate. We use genomics (often at the single-cell level), proteomics, molecular immunology, and computational methods to study antigen-specific interactions and their involvement in pathways underling anti-tumor immunity.
Our experienced personnel are committed to discovering and exploring essential and translational approaches in immune-oncology and offers technical support and scientific advice to investigators at DFCI and its partners who are interested in studying the immune response to cancer therapeutics.
