Learning center

An ever-growing source of articles to help you with your research

BioLogic's Learning Centre is a blog which will include articles for all scientific fields related to our instruments: Electrochemistry, Battery testing, Lifesciences, Material Characterization, Rapid Kinetics amongst others. You will find articles here that will help you get the most out of your instrument, together with more general, scientifically-focused papers that will discuss key scientific themes in broader detail. This database of articles will be regularly updated, so don't forget to check back if you don't see what you need. And please feel free to contact us, if you wish to suggest an article for this section.
