# Cutting-edge Technologies and Services
The advantages resulting from the use of Core Facilities are not only available for researchers of the instututes of the CMCB, but are open to all scientists at the Technische Universität Dresden, cooperating institutions, and biotechnology companies.
The goals behind the Core Facilites of the CMCB technology platform are:
- boost the scientific efficiency of all life science research groups of the Technische Universität Dresden with the availability of current technologies and equipment
- offer high-specialized technologies and equipment to a wide user field and therewith raise third-party-funding beyond the insitutes of the CMCB
- increase the attractiveness of Dresden for requitment and commitment of international researchers
- increase the competitiveness of junior research groups with best research opportunities and short establishment periods
- increase the occupancy rate of facilities and equipment to optimize the use of resources (investments, personnel and non-personnel costs, infrastucture)
- support the establishment and use of synergies within the university but also with non-university partners (DRESDEN-concept)
Interested users must be approved before the first usage - more information can be found here [Access and Costs](https://tu-dresden.de/cmcb/technologie-plattform/zugang).
