Application Potential users are asked to fill out a Project Application Form (click to view and print). As well as establishing eligibility, the information from the application helps maintain a database on facility use. This will be used for progress reports, grant applications, and identifying future Laboratory needs. The application also makes the Laboratory aware of your project so that we can provide the best possible technical advice. Training A formal two- to three-hour training session is required of all users. Care of equipment will be emphasized. Until properly trained, users may not operate the equipment without staff present. Following approval by the Laboratory manager for independent usage, microscope access will be available through online sign-up calendars. Experienced users may use the facility after hours and on weekends with approval. The Laboratory staff is always available for questions and consultations. Please contact Lance Rodenkirch at 265-5651 or larodenk@wisc.edu to schedule a training session. Fees
