About Vector Core

High Quality Research-Grade Viral Vectors

The Gene Transfer Vector Core (GTVC) is a viral vector core facility located at the Schepens Eye Research Institute and Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, both affiliated with Harvard Medical School.  GTVC is an integral part of the Grousbeck Gene Therapy Center and the Ocular Genomics Institute of Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.

Our primary goal is to provide high titer, high quality research-grade viral vectors to the research community at Harvard, within Boston, and outside to support preclinical gene therapy studies and basic research gene transfer applications.

To view services and place an order, please visit: Gene Transfer Vector

Due to a COVID-19 related shut-down of research activities within the Partners system, the Gene Transfer Vector Core (GTVC) at MEE has brought all activities to a safe stopping point on 3/18/2020. Activities will resume at a future point as per institutional guidelines and will be reported here.

GTVC will therefore be unable to provide services at this point, however, will continue taking novel orders via https://researchcores.partners.org/svectr/about
Inquiries can be directed as usual to gtvc@meei.harvard.edu

Thank you for your understanding and apologies for the delays this may cause in your research program.
