Core Facilities
Core facilities, sometimes called shared resources, provide sophisticated, expensive technology and expertise that no single lab would have the financial resources to purchase and learn. These fee-for-service resources help investigators maximize productivity by providing access to technologies, services and scientific consultation at a reasonable cost. Core facilities also provide stability, reliability, cost-effectiveness and quality control that would be difficult to achieve otherwise.
Faculty Handbook
This handbook was compiled by the University of Nebraska Medical Center Faculty Senate as a resource to policies, procedures, regulations, and other information which relates to faculty and their staff.
