At MRI, research facilities are more than just rooms filled with instruments; they are dynamic ecosystems led by innovative minds where game-changing progress and invention thrive. The Two-Dimensional Crystal Consortium-Materials Innovation Platform (2DCC-MIP), the Materials Characterization Lab, and the Nanofabrication Lab are core facilities that exemplify this ethos.

Each month, we share updates to the core facilities user base through the "MRI Core Facilities News & Updates" newsletter.
