CoVID-19 Note: During these unprecedented circumstances, the Biology/Evanth IT Departments have pooled their loaner inventory into a larger pool with other Trinity Technology Services Departments. We will still be able to take loaner requests, however, our inventory has shifted dramatically. We still have the non-laptop loaners available in the Biology Service Desk.
All members of the Biology/EA Departments can request the use of loaner equipment, if available, from the Biology/EA IT Service desk.
Requests are to be submitted by either e-mail: tts-sciencehelp@duke.edu or by submitting a request here: http://biology.duke.edu/about-us/departmental-it/request-it-help.
