Dear Core Users:
Our facility will be closed on Wednesday, December 25 and on Wednesday, January 1 due to the Christmas and New Year's holidays. Please expect some brief delays for all DNA Core services during this period. On both days, our courier service will not be operating, and our on-site drop box will only be accessible with a key card as the entrance to the building will be locked.
The entire CCIB DNA Core team wishes you a safe and happy holiday season. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for your business this year. We look forward to contributing to your success in 2025!

Dear Core Users:
After discussion with MGB Research Finance Management, our FY'25 service fee structure has now been finalized and will go into effect as of October 1, 2024.
These fees support our continuous process improvement efforts and the implementation of additional and/or improved service features. The changes are mandated by Mass General Brigham policies, which dictate that cores recover their operating costs without generating excess revenue.
All orders that begin processing in September but complete on or after October 1, 2024, will be invoiced at current (FY'24) pricing. Orders that are placed close to the end of September but are not processed before October 1, 2024, will be invoiced according to our new FY'25 pricing structure.
We appreciate your past patronage and look forward to serving your future research needs.
Sincerely,
The CCIB DNA Core Team
