The National Institutes of Health Office of the Director awarded $530,050 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center on May 15, 2026, under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) to acquire a JEOL JEM-120I (HC) 120 kilovolt Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) for the institution's Electron Microscopy Core Facility (EMCF). This project grant supports the replacement of a 19-year-old TEM that is nearing end-of-life due to failing cameras and recurring technical issues that limit operational availability. The new instrument will serve as a shared research resource for the institution's biomedical research community, enabling continued access to electron microscopy services that currently support 132+ users annually across 67 UT Southwestern laboratories. The EMCF utilizes its microscopy equipment more than 3,200 hours per year in support of NIH-funded research across multiple scientific disciplines, including studies on insulin receptor structure, ion channels, bacterial pathogenesis, cardiac and skeletal muscle development, and amyloid aggregation mechanisms. The new TEM will advance research initiatives with potential clinical impact on understanding and treating diabetes, obesity, muscular dystrophy, cardiomyopathy, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. The project completion date is May 14, 2027, allowing timely installation and operational setup of the instrument to maintain uninterrupted core facility services.Federal Grant Award Summary
