The goal of FIXLAB is to provide access for the Heritage Science (HS) community to key fixed research facilities and to the associated scientific experience of their staff that develop and maintain sophisticated state‐of‐the‐art instrumentation for advanced diagnostics and archaeometry.
Access is offered to researchers in Heritage Science to help address the major questions raised by the materiality of Heritage Science artefacts in terms of their genesis, manufacturing processes, alterations, conservation and preservation. The unique FIXLAB services offered to the HS community embrace advanced state‐of‐the‐art instrumentation; dedicated facilities with teams of experts in the field of micro‐analysis of HS artefacts; novel developments resulting from IPERION HS joint research activities to improve access progressively; development of both new sample‐positioning devices at a micro‐scale and software tools for the integration of imaging data.
