DBI has shared equipment which is available to DBI researchers and to all academic life science researchers in Delaware. Our equipment is located at the University of Delaware in Newark at both 15 Innovation Way and the Ammon Pinizzotto Biopharmaceutical Innovation Center (APBio).
Training is required for the use of all DBI shared equipment.
