We continuously expand and strengthen the platform instrument portfolio. The Platform Manager identifies opportunities for upgrades and new acquisitions to improve the platform and advises and participates in writing grant applications for the funding of new equipment. Together with the technician, the Platform Manager will advise and train the users, assist in developing methods, planning metabolomics experiments, analyze samples, manage booking and payment systems, as well as maintain current and future equipment.
