Research Operations Support

BioMed Facilities Planning and Operations acts as a lab equipment resource. The department is responsible for the purchasing, maintenance, and oversight of centrally-used equipment, including autoclaves, glass washers, building RODI water systems, and other centrally controlled research-related equipment.

All users of autoclaves and glass washers, including faculty, staff, and students, must go through safety training sponsored by Environmental Health and Safety.

  • To report operating issues with autoclaves, glass washers, or building RODI systems, please contact BioMed Facilities Planning and Operations at 863-2483.
  • For all other maintenance-related issues, such as utility services, contact the Facilities Management Service Response Center at 863-7800.
  • For questions and information about equipment safety training, contact Environmental Health and Safety at 863-3353.
