The Advanced Coal and Energy Research Facility provides for research and development of technologies relating to clean and sustainable utilization of fuels. It is a pilot-scale combustion test facility designed specifically to address the growing need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. ACERF is a greenfield pilot-scale (1 MW, thermal) research facility designed […]
Core Facilities
Analytical Biogeochemistry Laboratory
This laboratory offers a range of analytical services for soil, sediment, water, and plant studies from both field investigations and laboratory experiments. The specific foci are elemental analysis of solids, composition of aqueous fluids, and nutrient concentrations in water samples and soil, plant, and sediment extracts. The facility trains users to operate the instruments but […]
Biology Department Imaging Facility
Dedicated imaging facility for most aspects of brightfield, fluorescence and Electron Microscopy
Chemistry Poster Printing Resource
Provides poster printing of research related materials.
Data Services
Data Services supports the University in the broad areas of data analysis, management and curation. We are cultivating a growing suite of methodologies, tools, and software capabilities addressing the needs of faculty, students and staff. Our team is a trusted and innovative resource for the entire campus community. Our services fall broadly into two categories: […]
Dissemination & Implementation Research Core (DIRC)
The Dissemination and Implementation Research Core (DIRC) provides methodological expertise to advance translational research that moves efficacious health practices from clinical knowledge into routine, real-world use—a process called Dissemination and Implementation research (DIRC).
Dissemination and Implementation Science Core (DISC)
The primary goal of the new Dissemination and Implementation Science Core (DISC) is to provide NORC investigators with support integrating dissemination and implementation (D&I) science into their nutrition and obesity-related research programs. The D&I of biomedical discoveries is challenging but an absolute necessity to ensure all populations benefit from investments in nutrition and obesity research, […]
Electron Microprobe Facility
Electron microprobe analysis performed on a JEOL JXA-8200 electron microprobe.
