Technology Access Program
The Technology Access Program (TAP) provides Delaware bioscience businesses with access - at a reduced fee - to high-end technology platforms available as part of the Delaware Biotechnology Institute (DBI) network. Many businesses routinely send samples to these facilities for analysis and pay a certain rate for this service. Under TAP, businesses* will be able to continue to do their work, but receive a discounted rate that is subsidized by Bioscience CAT.

Eligible facilities include life science core facilities that have established fee-for-service rates for external clients.
