- The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering awarded the Board of Trustees of Southern Illinois University $556,875 on September 1, 2026, under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) to support undergraduate-led research on an electrografted molybdenum disulfide immunosensor. The research establishes the first solid-state electrografted interface combining covalently linked antibody probes and...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Board of Trustees of Southern Illinois University $248,901 on September 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to purchase a BD FACSMelody high-speed cell sorter equipped with blue, red, and violet lasers for use by biomedical researchers at Southern Illinois University–Carbondale. The instrument will serve investigators across two SIUC colleges and the SIU School of Medicine conducting research in cancer biology, neurobiology, immunology, and host-pathogen interactions. The cell sorter enables rapid isolation and simultaneous examination of specific cell subsets from mixed populations based on multiple surface markers, supporting both ongoing research and new projects currently not feasible with existing capacity. The equipment will be integrated into curricula in microbiology and engineering laboratory courses and will provide training opportunities for postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and undergraduates in flow cytometry and cell sorting technologies. The award is structured as a shared instrumentation project grant. Place of performance is Carbondale, Illinois. The period of performance runs from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2027.
