The Human Immune Monitoring Center (HIMC) is designed to be a comprehensive source for immune monitoring services for clinical and translational studies. We perform: Immunoassays: Luminexand Olink Target-96 platforms Mass Cytometry (CyTOF): Immunophenotyping, Intracellular cytokines, Phospho-epitopes Flow Cytometry: Immunophenotyping,Intracellular cytokines, Phospho-epitopes Genomics: RNA/DNA extractions, Microfluidic qPCR arrays, single-cellRNAseq Goals of the HIMC include:
The HIMC was developed in 2007 by the Institute for Immunity, Transplantation, and Infection (Mark Davis, Ph.D., director) in conjunction with the Center for Clinical Immunology (C. Garrison Fathman, founder). Our Faculty Advisor is Mark Davis. |

Publication Acknowledgement
As with all Stanford Service Centers, credit must be given to Human Immune Monitoring Center (HIMC) for data that results in a publication. If the work done at HIMC produces data resulting in a figure in a publication, you are required to acknowledge HIMC in the publication. Further, if HIMC staff members provided significant experimental design, data interpretation, or other intellectual contribution (as evaluated by the PI), then it is expected that these individuals will be coauthors on the publication.
One of our CyTOFs was purchased with funds from a NIH S10 Shared Instrumentation Grant (S10RR027431-01). Please acknowledge this grant in your papers using CyTOF data.
