- This Project Grant award of $750,000.00 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) will fund the acquisition of a Leica Stellaris 8 DIVE multiphoton microscope system for the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine Microscopy Core. The new microscope will replace UCSD's previous inoperable multiphoton system, providing critical research infrastructure to support a diverse set of NIH-funded investigators across the...
- This federal Project Grant award of $551,957 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) provides funding to the University of Scranton to acquire an Olympus Fluoview FV4000 inverted confocal microscope system. This microscope will be integrated into the university's upper-level biology courses and made accessible to faculty at other local universities to enhance research and training capabilities in multiple biological fields, including cellular...
- This $1,302,368 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) will establish a National Center for Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering at the University of Michigan. The center will leverage microsystems technology to develop miniature scanning, actuation, and sensing devices for use in fiber-coupled microendoscopes....
- The University of Michigan was awarded a $1.8 million project grant from the National Institutes of Health Office of the Director under the Research Infrastructure Programs federal grant program to purchase a Leica SP8 confocal microscope. The microscope will support over 30 investigators at the University engaged in diabetes, vision, and retinal research by replacing two aging microscopes in the university's shared imaging facility. The new microscope will provide high-speed resonant scanning...
- This $635,689 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) will fund the acquisition of a ZEISS LSM 980 confocal microscope with Airyscan 2 technology for the Optical Imaging Core Facility (OIF) at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA). The new confocal microscope will replace obsolete equipment and provide critical advanced imaging capabilities to support over 80 NIH-funded...
- The University of Illinois has been awarded a $1,870,822 Project Grant from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop new super-resolution fluorescence microscopy techniques. The goal is to achieve ultra-high resolution imaging of native amyloid-alpha receptors (AMPARs) in brain slices to study synaptic plasticity in both healthy and tauopathy conditions. The research will utilize multi-color imaging and digital image reconstruction methods to isolate...
This Project Grant award, totaling $7,800,554, was provided by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Construction Support program (CFDA 93.352) to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). The funding will be used to expand UIUC's microscopy core facilities and establish an Advanced Microscopy and Diagnostics Facility. This facility will serve as a regional center for sophisticated microscopy instruments and a hub for developing and testing diagnostic tools to detect circulating biomarkers. The project will also include the creation of a clinical research suite for sample collection. The goal is to increase access to advanced microscopy and diagnostics capabilities for UIUC researchers, as well as regional partners in universities, nonprofits, and companies, to support research in areas such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and women's health. The award period runs from September 15, 2025 to May 31, 2030.
