Bring Your Research to the Next Level

METRIC serves to provide NC State University researchers with access to state-of-the-art instrumentation and some of the brightest minds in the fields of mass spectrometry, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography.

The Molecular Education, Technology and Research Innovation Center (METRIC) at NC State is home to cutting edge analytical instrumentation as well as experts that can facilitate their use. The Lab Management application was built by NC State’s Office of Information Technology (OIT) using the MENDIX cloud application platform and facilitates instrument scheduling, billing, project requests and training enforcement to service centers at NC State, such as METRIC.

Andrew Hall, a Ph.D. candidate in fiber and polymer science at NC State’s Wilson College of Textiles, explains how he utilizes NC State’s METRIC core facility. His work focuses on identifying PFAS in firefighter gear to create pathways to reduce harm.
