Research Infrastructure at KBC

Activities and support of the research infrastructures at KBC are coordinated by the KBC Board, the "KBC group". The core facilities and technical platforms provide research projects at Umeå University and Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU, Umeå) with state-of-the-art methods, equipment and experienced staff. The infrastructures give regular courses for both PhD students and postdocs.

More information about each core facility / research infrastructure can be found on its own webpage.
