BORC offers customized training sessions (individual or small group), and all inquiries are welcome. Inquiries for more information or to request training can be emailed to Umidjon Iskandarov, Ph.D., uiskandarov2@unl.edu, or Zhen Wang, Ph.D., zwang3@unl.edu.

Graduate students can receive formal training in some of the BORC’s molecular and cell biology protocols by enrolling in class NUTR821 Molecular Nutrition Techniques (3 cr).

Prior training by BORC staff is required for unsupervised use of selected equipment and protocols, and access will be granted at the discretion of the Core Director.

BORC occasionally hosts workshops on core services and equipment applications. Additional ad hoc seminars provided by equipment vendors may also be held. Workshops will be announced in advance. New graduate students and postdocs are strongly encouraged to participate. We also recommend that current and potential users attend workshops related to the instruments they use or plan to use.
