Who We Are

Located within the Office of the Vice President for Research, we are here to help build resources for U-M’s Research Cores. We work closely with cores, and researchers to determine pain-points, help improve efficiencies and build support systems that will add value to our current research enterprise. Check back regularly for new resources and events, and be sure to sign up for our newsletter to keep up with all things related to cores.
