The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus received a $1,374,492 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (CFDA 93.351 - Research Infrastructure Programs) to purchase a new Zeiss LSM980 confocal/2-photon microscope system with fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) capabilities. This system will replace an aging Zeiss LSM780 confocal/2-photon FLIM microscope that has provided critical support for a wide range of NIH-funded research across 149 principal investigators over the past 5 years at the university. The new microscope system will maintain access to advanced multi-spectral confocal imaging, 2-photon microscopy, and FLIM to support cutting-edge biomedical research in areas such as cancer, neuroscience, and infectious diseases. The university will contribute $155,000 in institutional support towards this project, which is expected to be completed by June 2025.
