Policies
All prices are subject to change, to reflect changes in reagent and operation costs.
Facility use is based on a sign-up system, which is also the basis for calculating charges.
Billing will be monthly to a fund indicated by the users or their scientific supervisors. The fund holder will be informed of charges incurred by email, prior to the financial transaction. It is the responsibility of the supervisor to make sure the fund indicated covers the charges.
