- The West Virginia University Research Corporation was awarded a $777,000 Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health Office of the Director to support the purchase of a Cytek 3-laser Aurora analytical flow cytometer. The flow cytometer will be operated by the West Virginia University Flow Cytometry & Single Cell Core Facility to support biomedical research projects funded by NIH grants across multiple programs. High usage of the facility's existing analytical cytometer has led to...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the University of West Alabama $163,475 on September 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to acquire an Attune CytPix flow cytometer for high-throughput, high-precision cellular analysis. The University of West Alabama, a rural predominantly undergraduate institution in Alabama, lacks flow cytometry capacity and will use the instrument to advance research in host-microbe interactions, immunophenotyping, phagocytosis, genome size variation, and stress signaling. The Attune CytPix (BRV6Y package) combines up to 14 fluorescence channels and integrated brightfield imaging, enabling simultaneous detection of cell surface markers, intracellular proteins, apoptosis, cytokines, DNA content, and fluorescent reporters with image-assisted analysis. The equipment will operate as a shared core facility accessible across departments and will support course-based undergraduate research experiences including SEA-Phages and Molecule to Microbe, engaging over sixty undergraduates annually in hands-on research, and will enhance thesis projects in the Master of Science in Conservation Biology program. The award runs through August 31, 2027. Place of performance is Alabama. This is a Project Grant, the assistance type under which NIGMS typically funds equipment and research infrastructure at resource-limited institutions.
