It is now in place and running. Together with the OUS-core facility we have established a booking system and appointed two responsible scientists here. By mid-April we might be able to support future users.

Future users will have access to the booking system once training has been carried out, please contact Else Marit Inderberg or Sebastien Wälchli to organize the training.
