Bench fee (office space) / working day | - | 5.70 | 7.15 | 8.10 | 10.17 | |
Research infrastructure fee / working day | - | 9.00 | 11.30 | 13.90 | 17.44 | |
The bench fee or research infrastructure fee is not debited for internal (UH) users. The bench fee entitles to basic services such as office space. It is not charged from users who are paying for accommodation at the station (collaborators as well as others). Paying the research infrastructure fee opens access to the conventional laboratory facilities, microscopes, ovens, scales and other similar research infrastructure. Non-standard equipment and as well as operating costs of special facilities can be charged separately. For all projects, a User Access Agreement is written, detailing the facilities needed, timetables, logistic and analytical services needed, and costs involved. For example, the number of climate or aquarium rooms needed affects the cost. |
