Welcome to the CBI contacts/resource
site, on this page you will find direct contact information
for all the faculty and staff within the CBI. It is important
to recognize the CBI does not work as a traditional core, but
prides itself on being a leading center in the application
of cellular imaging from the single molecule to the whole animal.
Because of this we expect that if you are a new user of the
center you will contact the center director (Simon Watkins)
directly at swatkins@pitt.edu.
He can establish interactions with you and if relevant your
advisor/mentor/principal investigator. Subsequently, you will
be directed to a specific contact person who will be your primary
contact for the project. If you are an established user interested
in starting a new project or expanding an existing project,
discuss it with your primary contact. In each case, you should
feel free to contact the director at any time, if you have
problems using the services and resources offered by the center. |
