Core Facilities
Give your small team big company resources.
While LabCentral offers a wide range of equipment and instrumentation, we know that our residents may still have unmet technical needs. We have established relationships with local core facilities to supplement the capabilities within LabCentral.
LabCentral will set you up for success by:
- Filling you in on the process so you know what to expect before engaging with a new team.
- Providing direct introductions to the proper contacts for your needs.
- Processing transactions through Stork*
- These include issuing purchase orders, receiving invoices, and paying on your behalf so you don't have to manage separate accounts. Services to be consolidated with your monthly LabCentral invoice.
- *subject to standard Stork service charge
- Connecting you to other residents who have previously worked with the Core Facility to share experiences (based on mutual agreement).
