National Scientific User Facility

A National Scientific User Facility is a specialized research center supported by the government that provides scientists with access to advanced equipment, tools, and resources they might not afford or develop on their own. These facilities enable researchers from universities, industry, and government labs to conduct high-level experiments and gather data in areas like physics, biology, and materials science. By sharing these state-of-the-art capabilities, they accelerate scientific discovery, innovation, and technological development for the benefit of society.
