Structure

The FPS Core Facility as a subunit of the FPS  and the organisational process of a user enquiry. Interested users can gain simple and transparent access to the diverse range of methods offered by the FPS Core Facility. The scientific board (heads of the three units and the scientific coordinator of the FPS Core Facility) or their representatives are available as direct contacts for user enquiries. In addition, the excellent scientific expertise in the respective working groups ensures optimal individual counselling. Once the oral consultation has been completed, the user enquiry must be submitted to the scientific board by means of a short project application. The enquiry must explain the project plan and provide further information on the system to be investigated and any boundary conditions. The user application is submitted via a dedicated online platform. Once the project application has been received, it will be evaluated by the scientific board and checked in particular with regard to its scientific feasibility. Should the scientific board have any queries, the project application must be supplemented by the user.
