Pricing
Prior to project initiation, a meeting is required with CBC staff to discuss each project. If mutually agreed that the CBC can support the project, we will deliver a quote outlining the approach, timeline, and cost for the agreed service(s). As this is cutting-edge science, we cannot guarantee success, in all cases the user will be billed for cost and labor for CBC effort per our fee structure. After acceptance of the quote, the user will fill out and return the sample submission form provided with the quote, and also found on each CBC facility’s website. All samples are assumed to be safe, and no greater than BSL1, unless otherwise agreed upon in advance. The user must diligently and transparently followed all University of Illinois sample acquisition, movement, and safety protocols.

This is an abridged list of our service prices and subject to change at any time; please contact Dr. Mark Band, Director of Functional Genomics, at (217) 244-3930 or markband@illinois.edu for information on prices and other issues related to your project.
External users are charged an additional 31.7% overhead fee, which is capped at 20% for those users from State of Illinois subsidized universities and government agencies. A technical testing agreement is required. For further information contact Dr. Marcello Rubessa (rubessa@illinois.edu), Associate Director of the Roy J. Carver Biotechnology Center.
All scientific work performed by the Roy J. Carver Biotechnology Center (CBC) is required to be acknowledged in scholarly publications, posters, and presentations. Proper recognition allows us to measure the impact of our work and supports our initiatives in obtaining sponsored funding. In addition, any CBC personnel who make a substantial intellectual or experimental contribution are deserving of further recognition as co-author.
