Research Support Division
The Research Support Division led by Dr. Gustavo Ceballos offers ICN2 research groups and neighbouring centres a repository of advanced services for the development of new methods, materials and instruments, and in doing so fosters multidisciplinary collaborations within the institute and beyond. It is staffed with highly-qualified scientists and technicians with diverse skillsets that bring added value to the ICN2 and all of its research groups.
RESEARCH SUPPORT MANAGEMENT
The research support division serves over 200 registered internal and external users managing approximately 45 instruments across 16 laboratory locations within ICN2 building and the ALBA Synchroton complex. To coordinate this extensive infrastructure, a highly competent management team has been established.

Research Support Units
Led by scientists with extensive research experience, the units develop novel experimental equipment, setups and techniques. Their combined expertise enables ICN2 research groups to conduct experiments at the frontier of science in a way that would not be possible without specialised support.

Research support facilities
The Core Research Facilities constitute a body of specialised equipment, technologies and services. Very much service-oriented, these facilities are run by highly-qualified personnel and allow ICN2 scientists to efficiently and cost-effectively meet their ambitious research goals.
