Core Facilities

The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) supports a wide range of shared resources and core facilities designed to advance basic, clinical and translational research.

A research core facility is a shared resource that provides access to instruments, technologies and services on a pay-per-use basis. Some UAMS core facilities use iLab for managing service requests, sample processing, equipment reservations, usage tracking, billing/invoicing, reporting, lab requisitioning, and spend tracking tools.
