Cell and Gene Technologies Core (CAGT Core)
Vector Core | CRISPR Facility | iPS Core
Custom-Made Tools for Your Research
In January 2022, Lund Stem Cell Center (StemTherapy) and MultiPark merged the former iPSC, CRISPR and vector platforms into the new Cell and Gene Technologies Core Facility, located at BMC B10.
Today, the CAGT Core Facility, serves as an open-access infrastructure offering a range of services including AAV and LV vector production, mRNA production, iPSC-reprogramming, iPSC-edits, and CRISPR experimental designs.
The core facility welcomes members of Lund Stem Cell Center (StemTherapy) & MultiPark, as well as academic users from both national and international institutions.
News from the Core
Updates:
- Still spots available for this course (lectures only) Course in iPSCs - handling, maintenance and understanding of human pluripotent stem cells - Next course in September 2026.
- We published a joint paper "The transformative impact of stem cell core facilities in biomedical research".
- We got a prize! As members of the Stem Cell Core Facilitie Networks CorEUstem and COREdinates we were awarded The ISSCR Public service award 2026.
- We are very happy to have been able to contribute to this paper by tweaking the reprogramming protocol for these difficult fibroblasts. " Human iPSCs derived from cryopreserved testicular somatic cells enable germline regeneration in childhood cancer survivors"
Increased service fees from the 1st of January 2026. Price list is now updated.
We are changing our name! From "Cell and Gene Therapy Core" to "Cell and Gene Technologies Core". Acronym stays the same: CAGT
