Mobile Lab

Esfandiari/UHH

The Mobile Lab was established in 2012 and has continually been growing. Besides Western Europe, it has operated in Nepal, Ethiopia, and other regions, bringing its expertise in non-destructive material analyses to the places where the artefacts are kept without exposing them to the hazards of transportation. Its instrumentation is continually updated and improved with the goal to expand not only the range of portable equipment but also of methodologies.

Our Written Artefact Profiling Guide introduces the scientific methods and analytical tools available at the Mobile Lab for the study of materials used to produce written artefacts.

Requests for cooperation should be addressed to Claudia Colini or Sebastian Bosch.
