The User Support Group consists of scientific experts, technicians and training personnel available for collaboration with and consultation by external users of the 2DCC-MIP.  User support is partitioned into three main user groups (synthesis, theory, and characterization).  This committee will aid in coordinating and prioritizing resources needed to execute the objectives of projects selected for facility use.

Contact a user support group advocate to discuss your research prior to submission to help ensure you develop and effective proposal that is in line with the solicitation and the 2DCC-MIP focus.
