For each Scientific Equipment Platform, a presentation of the equipment and services will be provided by one of the technicians working in the scientific and technical service.

Then, this short presentation will be followed by a reserach application example, given by one of our researchers working with the equipment for advanced research.

The idea is to show you what our Scientific Equipment Platforms can do for you!

After the talks there will be an open doors visit to the labs, so you will be able to see the equipment and ask questions to the people in charge of them.

Take a look at our programme and register here* (and choose the services you'd like to visit).
