About Center for Core Facilities (CCF)

The Center for Core Facilities (CCF) at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences (SUND) aims to strengthen access to advanced research technologies and foster interdisciplinary collaboration at the University of Copenhagen. CCF coordinates and develops strategic core facilities across the faculty, ensuring cutting-edge technologies, transparent processes and pricing, and strong links to leading research environments.

Established on 1 September 2025, CCF brings world-class infrastructure under one umbrella, making it easier for researchers, educators, and innovators to access technologies that drive and support excellent research, discovery, innovation, and life-long education.

The CCF will create a research infrastructure-centric ecosystem to implement and sustain excellent service provision, support and drive technology/methodology innovation, and secure the financial sustainability of core facilities. Importantly, CCF will define and implement attractive career paths for the highly interdisciplinary and divers professionals that lead, manage and operate our core facilities.

Looking ahead, CCF will continue to expand its facilities, create and strengthen partnerships at the institutional, national and international level, and continuously adapt to the needs of the research community.
