Access and getting started at LNL

This is a requirement for all users (except those who already completed a corresponding introduction course at another Myfab entity). The Lund Nano Lab Introduction course is a comprehensive training for how to work safely in the clean room environment at Lund Nano Lab.

The introduction course schedule is available on the home page of the Laboratory Information and Management System (LIMS). Here you can apply for access to Lund Nano Lab.

Your LIMS account will be activated after attending the Lund Nano Lab introduction course.

Ask your supervisor for project details and inform Head of Laboratory, Luke Hankin and he will give you access in LIMS to book against this project. Details needed: research group, project name and activity, name of associated fund, duration of project if it is a new one. You cannot book tools without a project.

Individual tools are only available to book in LIMS only after you have been authorized by the responsible tool owner.

Start by identifying a practical coach who may be a regular user in your team / group. Spend some time learning how to use the tool and when you are ready, you can apply for a licence in LIMS and the 'tool responsible' will assess your skills and hopefully issue with a license.

If in doubt, ask the Head of Laboratory, Luke Hankin or deputy, Anders Kvennefors 

Access to the lab, some basic tools and common consumable materials are included in a monthly access fee.

Tool usage is charged typically by the hour. The tool rate per hour depends on the type / complexity of tool and a consideration of the consumables.
