The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded Arizona State University $1,999,997.00 through the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) to acquire an electron energy filtering system and direct electron detector camera for their cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) facility. This upgrade will significantly enhance the quality and resolution of cryo-EM data, enabling ASU researchers to advance structural biology studies, develop new medical applications such as rational drug design and nanomedicine, and image thick biological specimens. The new cryo-EM workflow is expected to boost productivity and expand the scope of NIH-funded biomedical research at ASU and the broader southwestern region. The award period runs from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2025.
