In Vivo Therapeutics Core

IVT fees

The core is funded, in part, by grants and contracts of the investigators who utilize the facility. Due to the variety of in vivo models and drug regimens requested, the specific costs of a study will be calculated once the study design is finalized.

  • Weekend/after-hours/holiday rates will be two times the regular procedure rate, with minimum charge per trip ($191).
  • IUSCCC members receive discounted rates; contact Kristina Taylor at kristtay@iu.edu or 317-274-3893, for additional rate information.
  • External rates will be determined upon consultation.
