Training

Researchers interested in using the equipment provided in the X-ray core laboratory are required to attend one-on-one training before independent use. Users are expected to have completed safety training as required by Yale OEHS. Use of the X-ray generator also requires XRD training from Yale OEHS and the usage of a dosimetry badge and ring.
