The UCLA Molecular Instrumentation Center The UCLA Molecular Instrumentation Center (MIC) is a state-of-the-art campus-wide facility dedicated to enabling the use of modern instrumentation in molecular characterizations. (www.mic.ucla.edu) The MIC is housed within and managed through the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. The professional staff consists of ten Ph.D. level and one-B.S. level staff members and is currently recruiting for two Associate Directors. The staff is responsible for operating, maintaining, and upgrading the equipment, and training users. The following equipment is part of the UCLA Molecular Instrumentation Center:
