The Bauer Core Facility provides state-of-the-art instrumentation and expertise to scientists at Harvard. Our goal is to advance research efforts in the life sciences that cannot readily be accomplished in the traditional academic laboratory because of a need for expensive instrumentation, scientific or organizational infrastructure, or multidisciplinary expertise.
Our technical staff consult with researchers to help them choose the best technologies for their projects and to help them design careful experiments. Researchers may then request that the staff run core instruments as a service, or they may request hands-on training to enable them to use our instruments independently.
