ALERT Welcome to Pitt’s iLab System!
Pitt’s iLab is integrated with our single sign-on and billing systems, linking faculty and staff grants to reserved time and services.
As of April 2026, we have 36 shared research facilities online with more expected to onboard throughout 2026.
Important: The department field for all Pitt employees has been standardized using a naming convention. Please do not modify this field, as it is essential for building templates that enable automated reporting.
Please review our Shared Facilities webpage and the iLab training material available in the “Using Core Facilities” section.

CFAR Core D, through the University of Pittsburgh CRU, provides rapid access to existing clinical data and repository samples, on-demand acquisition of fresh biologic samples, including hard-to-acquire tissue samples, regulatory support, database development, and community outreach.
