  * The overall expected cost for minimum required tissue testing (excluding indirect expenses) for 6 specimens is approximately $36k.
  * The goals is find the most cost effective solution.
  * Paying weekly or monthly for using the existing equipment may not be optimal since we will not be continuously testing all the specimens.
  * A more open access to the testing equipment is desirable in order to test more samples without the expenses exceeding the proposed budget.
  * New testing equipment may be purchased for the project which can also be used by the Bio-robotics core for other projects (fee for service).
  * The testing equipment from Biomometum Inc. is being considered which may provide a cost effective option to perform tissues testing for the project.
