Since then, equipment donations from Thermo Fisher have been included in 60 Instrumental Access shipments. These instruments have found a productive second home at 47 universities in 25 developing countries! Thanks to Thermo Fisher Scientific, thousands of students and scientists have the tools they need to research, innovate, and discover.
