The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded $249,034 to CSU Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corporation on September 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to acquire a BD FACSMelody cell sorter for California State University, Fullerton. The instrument expands cell analysis and purification capabilities at CSUF through high-resolution benchtop flow cytometry enabling precise sorting of viable cell populations based on fluorescence, size, and granularity. Research applications include investigating plasma membrane localization of HSPA1A, a molecular chaperone implicated in cancer progression and stress adaptation; sorting genetically engineered Trypanosoma cruzi to study mechanosensitive ion channels involved in infectivity; isolating glial cells for transcriptomic analysis of neuroinflammatory responses; purifying Drosophila immune cells for lipidomic profiling in myelination models; and characterizing antibiotic-tolerant subpopulations of Acinetobacter baumannii to uncover resistance mechanisms. The sorter integrates into upper-division laboratory curricula and supports mentorship of undergraduate and master's students across cancer biology, microbiology, neurobiology, and parasitology research activities. Performance occurs at Fullerton, California, with a period of performance from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2027. The award is classified as a Project Grant, an assistance type supporting biomedical research infrastructure at a primarily undergraduate institution serving a large Hispanic student population.
