The University of Iowa MR Research Facility was established in August of 2004 with the acquisition of a Siemens Trio 3T scanner, shared between research and clinical usage. While the Center is within the Department of Radiology, it is run as a Core University facility. The facility is managed on a daily basis by Vincent Magnotta, PhD, Alan Stolpen, MD, PhD, and Dan Thedens, PhD. Oversight is provided by a Research Advisory committee that reviews new project proposals and equipment acquisitions. Since its inception, the equipment managed by the Research Center has expanded. In 2006, a research dedicated Siemens Avanto 1.5T scanner was loaned to the University by Siemens Medical Solutions to support research studies. Then, in 2007 an NIH/NCRR High End Instrumentation grant supported the acquisition of a research dedicated Siemens TIM Trio 3T scanner. Standard operating hours for the research-dedicated 3T TIM Trio scanner are from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. During this time, a technologist is provided to run the scanner. The shared research 3T TIM Trio scanner is available all day Tuesdays (8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.), and Thursday afternoons (12:00 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.) for research studies. The shared Avanto 1.5T scanner is available Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The scanners are also available after-hours if technologist coverage is available, or if the user is certified to conduct MR studies on their own. The current rate for scanner usage is $600 per hour and can be scheduled in half hour increments.

The Angiogenesis, Endothelial & Pro-Angiogenic Cell Core (AEPCC) is a state-of-the-art facility that has been established through the Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center, a National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center, to conduct validated and highly reproducible in vitro and in vivo angiogenesis, endothelial, hematopoietic and multi-parametric flow cytometry assays and their role in normal and patient-related hematologic and cardiovascular disorders. In addition to possessing the in vitro and in vivo assays that define the endothelial progenitor outgrowth cells that possess in vivo vessel forming ability, the AEPCC recently stringently defined a population of pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic circulating hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (CHSPCs) that has been shown to regulate angiogenesis. Discovery of these novel CHSPC subsets demonstrates the uniqueness and strength of the approach by the AEPCC that requires both phenotypic and functional data to validate specific circulating cells that participate in new blood vessel formation. The specific assays offered by the AEPCC function as quantitative analytical tools, potential biomarkers of several hematopoietic diseases, and as experimental platforms for understanding the basic mechanisms of angiogenesis and the interplay between the endothelial and hematopoietic systems. For example, not only are CHSPCs critical for normal and abnormal angiogenesis, but we and others have reported that certain endothelial cells are critical for CHSPC expansion ex vivo and that endothelial cells promote CHSPC engraftment post-ablation. The AEPCC serves to directly perform all of the assays required to analyze research samples, and as a consultation, education, and new assay development site for scientists within and outside the IU School of Medicine and Indiana University. Furthermore, the AEPCC is one of only five nationally recognized Core Centers of Excellence in Molecular Hematology by the National Institutes of Health and is a certified core of the Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI).
