Three Faculty Scientific Liaisons are responsible for supporting and cultivating trans-disciplinary research collaboration between pairings of the scientific core facilities: The scientific liaisons meet regularly with the faculty of the cores to which they are assigned and engage in focused efforts that synergize expertise, resources, and data across the respective core facilities to generate new research.
