Pilot research projects are often only the beginning of many years of research and study. The figures below provide some insight into the cost of research.
Research Technician – $19,000 – $27,000 for 6 months; projects may require more than one technician to aid the main researcher.
Equipment – $12,000 – $34,000 for items such as glassware; plasticware; electron microscope supplies; testing kits; test subjects; chemicals and reagents, some of which are extremely expensive and difficult to produce.
