The Molecular Analysis Facility (MAF) at the University of Washington (UW) is an open-access instrumentation facility located in theMolecular Engineering & Science Building. The MAF's extensive microscopy, spectroscopy, and surface science capabilities are available to UW researchers as well as researchers from other academic institutions, industry, and government labs. Users can be trained to independently perform experiments, or an experienced staff member can perform experiments for users.

MAF staff scientists have expertise in in biology, chemistry, clean energy, photonics, and nanomaterials. In addition to training users and performing experiments, MAF staff scientists are available to consult on experimental design and can help identify the best available technique for a particular scientific inquiry. Existing and prospective users are encouraged to contact staff about their research needs.
