Cell Imaging Center Prices
The Cell Imaging Center offers state-of-the-art imaging for nominal fees, which are used toward defraying the costs of maintenance and service of our microscopes. Trained users are welcome to sign up for 3 hour time blocks between the hours of 9 am and 6 pm daily or for more than 3 hours during weekends and evenings. If you need technical assistance with your imaging, please contact the center’s manager Jon Bowen (jrb53@drexel.edu) to arrange a “sit-in” or a “core-run” session.
Users under a subscription plan have unlimited use as per center rules and will not accrue any hourly fees. Those interested in obtaining a year-long subscription plan should see Elias Spiliotis.
