Limited Scope Proposals

Limited Scope proposals are requests for short-term projects to conduct a limited scope of work outside of EMSL’s advertised calls for proposals. Requests are accepted on a limited basis at the discretion of management, based on current staffing and instrument availability. If awarded, a Limited Scope proposal provides up to three months of access, beginning on the start of the experiment. If you are interested in submitting a proposal, contact emsl@pnnl.gov.
