Our Mission
Need access to specialist magnetic measurement tools? We facilitate equipment sharing across labs to enable more efficient and impactful research.
Why equipment sharing matters
Learn something new
Get hands-on experience with equipment you don’t have in your own lab. It’s a chance to pick up new skills and learn techniques you might not otherwise be exposed to.
Make the most of what’s already here
Birmingham has some incredible facilities — but they’re often tucked away in different departments. By opening up access, we make better use of what's already available.
Turn shared tools into shared projects
Using equipment across groups naturally leads to conversations, collaborations, and new research ideas. It’s not just about access — it’s about building connections.
