Internal users

All potential University of Bristol users must request access and/or training on the facility microscopes/spectrometers using our access request form. This will allow us to allocate time on our instruments based on urgency, need and safety. Applications will be reviewed weekly, following which a facility staff member will be in touch to deal with your request.

University users must agree to acknowledge the facility in publications and presentations that include data acquired on facility equipment and/or with our support.

If you would like access to our facilities but don't have grant income to do so, then you may be eligible for funding from the Exploratory Facility Fund.
