Shared Research Facilities and Resources

Note: This directory is being updated and improved for a relaunch in November 2025. Please contact Adam Wojno, Assistant Vice Provost for Shared Facilities, with any questions.

A listing of equipment, facilities, and services available to our UW research community. Each resource has a detailed profile page containing a description of the available equipment, facilities, or services, as well as contact information.

In addition, best practice is to acknowledge shared resources in research proposals and publications.
