Recharge Facilities

BioPACIFIC MIP Users can leverage a number of Shared-Use Facilities at each campus to streamline research and minimize the need to send samples back and forth between BioPACIFIC MIP and their home institution. BioPACIFIC MIP can facilitate connections to the respective facility managers for technical discussions, training, and access. Fees may apply.
