List of participants
It is imperative that the project leader (researcher, curatorial manager, doctoral student, master, external, etc.) is the one who carries out the data analysis work and the research work (or the museum exploitation) that results from it. (thus to ensure optimal demand for tomographic acquisition specificities). The cost estimate will be sent to the project owner.
Project collaborators
Information on Collaborators (700 characters max)
Last name (s), first name (s), affiliation (s) of the collaborator (s) of the project.
Scientific project
Summary of the scientific project for this request (200 words maximum)
The summary may, for selected projects, be posted on the website of the platform and in the dissemination documents produced by the platform.
Contributions of the method (200 words maximum)
Details on the interests of tomographic analysis (what is the contribution of tomography for your project, which structures do you wish to highlight (area of interest), what types of post-processing analysis will be used, etc.)?
Project framework (200 words maximum)
Explanations on the broader framework in which the project fits (Master, Thesis, funded research program (ANR, ERC, PICS, etc.), preventive conservation, exhibition, restoration, etc.).
Study material
Material and methods (500 words maximum)
Details of the material to be analyzed (collection (s) of origin of specimens, number and size of specimens and / or bones or fragments that compose them *, provide photographs *), if possible estimate of technical requirements (number of x-rays or any known acquisition parameters; to the document AST-RX_presentation et modalite de fonctionnement.pdf explaining how the technical platform operates).
An exhaustive description of the study material is essential to the choice of the best tomographic analysis parameters and to the estimation of the scanning time and the cost of the service.
For MNHN specimens, the inventory number is required.

Catalog number inside the chosen collection
Check and add
The specimen is already selected
Inventory number is correct
The inventory number does not correspond to a computerized specimen
You will not be able to submit your project if the inventory number is wrong or does not exist (please contact the relevant curatorial manager if the number is not valid). Examples: HA then D-2, HA then D-1-bis
Specimens external to the MNHN
