We are transitioning to a new reservation and billing system called Honeycrisp. Users will be receiving instructions on when the switch will occur for each instrument and will be provided with instructions for using Honeycrisp.
The Advanced Light Microscopy Facility now has a Research Resource Identifier to cite us as a resource in research publications. Please reference "The University of Connecticut Advanced Light Microscopy Facility, RRID:SCR_027547" in the Experimental Methods section when the facility's microscopes and/or software are used in a manuscript.
Use of facility microscopes can be arranged by filling out the Service Request Form. For the X-Rad 320 Irradiator, see that instrument's dedicated page.

Microscope reservations can be made no more than 14 days in advance.
There is generally no maximum reservation time limit unless an instrument becomes extremely busy. In this case, a maximum limit may be imposed.
Changes or cancellations to reservations can be made up to 6 hours in advance. After that, the full cost of the reservation will be charged.
The actual reservation time plus any additional time used will be billed automatically.
Reservations will be automatically cancelled if not started within 30 min.
Once per user, per calendar month, a billing adjustment can be made for a cancelled/changed reservation. Requests must be made to almf@uconn.edu by email.
