Archived: Outsourcing Lab Procedures: What Are Your Needs and Ideas?
Do you want to have more or easier access to state-of-the-art technologies and methodologies for your research? Are there specific types of non-clinical laboratory procedures that you wish were available through an outsourcing service?
If you answered “yes” to either of these questions, then please consider responding to our Request for Information (RFI): Priorities for Outsourcing of Laboratory Procedures. The RFI will help us identify research areas, such as assays, measurements and computational and data management tasks, that could be developed into outsourced services perhaps by small businesses and possibly supported through new funding opportunities.
Responses, which are voluntary and anonymous, should be submitted electronically (no longer available) by May 1, 2012.
UPDATE: The response deadline has been extended to May 15 (NOT-GM-12-110).
