Practicalities

Would you like to use the Lab’s equipment or rooms, or receive ongoing consultations over multiple occasions or a longer period? If so, we’d be happy to welcome you as a Lab user—simply initiate a project to get started! Follow these steps:

1.  Contact relevant member of staff

Your first step is to contact a staff member associated with the facility relevant to your project. Whenever possible, please use the functional email addresses listed on the facility’s webpage. This initial conversation, often through a meeting, will help us understand your needs (e.g. regarding equipment, availability or timeline) and ensure fair and efficient access for all users. Even experienced Lab users are kindly asked to reach out to facility representatives, as this overview is essential for coordinating resources and supporting all users effectively.

3. Meet with the deputy director

Upon receiving your project application, the deputy director will contact you to book a meeting to finalise the application process. In the meeting, which takes approximately 30 minutes, you will go through the user agreement. After the meeting, the signed agreement will be filed and a copy sent to you. This is when your project formally starts.  

4. Receive confirmation e-mails

After the meeting, you will receive two emails with instructions on obtaining lab access, booking rooms and equipment, adhering to user guidelines, and managing data storage.

If you are a registered lab user but only wish to book equipment or rooms for a single occasion, please send an e-mail to bookingshumlab.luse
