The CAF exists as a specialised unit located within the Research Office's Research Facilities and Infrastructure team.
It provides the research community with access to state-of-the-art instrumentation and associated technical support in the areas of Analytical and Biological Mass Spectrometry as well as Flow Cytometry and Advanced Imaging.
The CAF's Life Sciences Laboratory is a University-classified Restricted Area. As such, access to all areas is strictly controlled for security as well as health and safety reasons. Access is granted only after undergoing a basic laboratory induction process and subsequent authorisation by CAF staff. Access to the CAF Laboratory is secured by electronic locks, which are in operation at all times (i.e. ‘24/7’), and entry requires the use of a ‘swipe card’.
