Our offer – digital profiling of core facilities

This page is probably the most important page for the prospective user of the core facility. It needs to contain a clear description of what your facility can offer the client. Important key words and sought-after information should be presented at the top of the page.

After the brief start (above), write two or three short paragraphs about what kind of techniques, equipment and/or services your facility provide. It is important that the information is easy to understand at a quick glance for a visitor browsing the KI website in search of the right core facility. 

Then, continue presenting your offer by using two or three subtitles in the format linked H2. Use bullet points to present specific equipment, methods, services or alike. To make the page and your offer easier to overview, it is also possible to use the Drupal module Accordion. You will find an example below with the heading 'Experimental design support'.

Avoid confusing the visitor with illustrations that doesn’t provide any extra information. View the example below and adapt it to your own facility.

Example text: The Digital Profiling Core Facility (DPCF) provide very useful services, using state of the art technology within the very complex biomedical research area.
