Surplus lab equipment give away!

by Alina Skorobohatova

Hello everyone, We are cleaning up one of Dr. Rob Hill's old lab room to set up the new Weed Ecology laboratory. In preparation of the room for our use, we have identified many pieces of glassware and other miscellaneous items that were left behind. Since most of this equipment is likely valuable to another research program, I would like to bring your attention to the attached PDF with images and brief descriptions of the items we would like to re-home. If you think your research program could benefit from any of these items, please reach out to me (jonathan.rosset(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:jonathan.rosset@umanitoba.ca>) before June 9, 2023 to arrange a time to inspect and re-home an item(s). After this time, any leftover items will be offered to other departments and faculties before being disposed of in the trash. Thank you, Jonathan Rosset, MSc P.Ag. Research Technician University of Manitoba 204-599-8464 jonathan.rosset(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:jonathan.rosset@umanitoba.ca>
