Schedule

Scheduling

To schedule a training appointment or consultation contact the Electron Microscopy Center (EMC) to get started (or by calling us at 812-856-1457).

Equipment scheduling for trained users is done using an iLab login.

Instructions for iLab for the EMC

You may reserve time up to two weeks in advance. Please be considerate of the needs of others by reserving only 4 hours/day between 9am and 5pm, Monday - Friday.

Time Use Policies

Herschel Lenz and Ruth Dippell working around an RCA EMU3 electron microscope in the Biology Building basement.
  1. Please schedule time on the various pieces of equipment as far in advance as your schedule and your science allows and also as far in advance as iLab allows (usually 14 days).
  2. Scheduled time must be paid for.
  3. The minimum times that can be scheduled are 10 min for the JEOL JEM 1010, 15 min for JEOL JEM 1400plus, 1 hr for JEOL JEM 3200FS and 30 min for the FEI Teneo VolumeScope.
  4. Consistently leaving instruments in a state not useable by the next user will result in instrument use only while supervised by a staff member.
  5. Training times never involve charges for staff time UNLESS it is a refresher course or the user needs significantly more training than typical users.
  6. All fee-for-service instrument time is billed at prime-time hourly rates unless explicitly requested.
