STEM Instrumentation Facility

足彩app哪个是正规的 School of STEM Instrumentation Facility offers industry and community partners access to analyze samples with our scientific instruments. After hands-on training with STEM lab staff, users can reserve instrument time and conduct their own sample analyses with confidence and precision.  

While the facility currently specializes in advanced chemistry instruments, it also supports research in environmental sciences, engineering, and biology. Our tools are designed to help users characterize samples — whether?you’re?identifying?compounds, analyzing purity or exploring material composition.?

足彩app哪个是正规的 facility is located in Bothell, Washington, at the University of Washington Bothell on the third and fourth floors of Discovery Hall.
