Dear microscopists,

please be aware that Research Support Services have now updated the charging rates to be used on grant applications for facility usage. Please always make sure you use the up-to-date rates when you apply for grants, to make sure you are not under-funded. Also don't forget to update the rates if you have started to write a grant application recently, which hasn't been submitted yet. The link to the new rates is on the FILM website under GUIDELINES / CHARGES / GRANT APPLICATIONS.

<http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/portal/page/portallive/imagingfacility/facility_guidelines/charges#grant_applications>

These rates are based on estimates of future costs and usage. Hopefully, usage will be good and actual charges lower than estimated, so you will get more hours out of your grant money. As always, the more you use it, the cheaper it gets, a win-win situation for facility and users.

Good imaging,

Martin
