ISS Core Facilities Service

Open Day FAST

FAST, the ISS Core Facilities Service, will present the latest innovations in terms of cutting-edge technologies and new skills.

The FAST Areas provide integrated and interdisciplinary support to research projects, allowing access to cutting-edge technologies and highly qualified personnel. We can offer end-to-end support by accompanying the researcher from experimental design to data acquisition and analysis.

The Open Day is an opportunity to explore the technologies of the ISS core facilities that can help you accelerate and develop your projects; an opportunity for exchange in an informal atmosphere in which all members of the Institute will be able to ask their questions during the presentations in the morning or in front of the posters or stands of the individual Areas in the afternoon.
