NECAT Beamline

The Northeastern Collaborative Access Team (NE-CAT) facility at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory is managed by Cornell University and consists of seven member institutions:

  • Columbia University
  • Cornell University
  • Harvard University
  • Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology
  • Rockefeller University
  • Yale University.

    • Primary funding for this project comes from the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Additional financial support for NE-CAT comes from the member institutions.

    Getting Access to Argonne
    Site access to Argonne National Laboratory is permitted only with an ID badge or a visitor pass. A visitor pass can be arranged:
         By phone: NE-CAT, 630-252-0689
          By email to: csalbego@anl.gov

    The gate pass may be picked up at the Argonne Information Center located just outside the Main Gate Guard House off Cass Avenue. The Center is open M-F, 6:30a.m. -5:00p.m. CST. A pass may be left at the Guard House for pick up during times when the AIC is not open. A site access visitor pass alone does not permit a user unescorted access to the APS facility; either a temporary or permanent Cardkey® badge is needed for unescorted APS access.

    Visitors can access the laboratory at three different points:
    Main Gate (on Northgate Rd. off Cass Ave.)
