Shared Resources

Shared Resources have been developed where a perceived need exists for specialized equipment, services, or expert consultation. Shared Resources with specialized instrumentation, and the expertise to apply these resources to research, have become increasingly important in recent years.

Shared Resources provide:

• Facilitated and more affordable means to access technology that cannot be supported by individual labs.
• Centralized intellectual and technical resources that can assist the researcher in designing and conducting the proper experiment, preparing the appropriate samples for analysis, analyzing them in the most appropriate manner, and assisting in correctly interpreting the results.
• The essential technical support for the operation and maintenance of specialized equipment.
