Albert Einstein College of Medicine received a $750,000 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) on May 15, 2026, with a completion date of May 15, 2027. The award funds the acquisition of a new Schottky field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) with serial block-face imaging (SBF-SEM) capability for the Analytical Imaging Facility (AIF), a multi-user core imaging facility supporting biomedical research at the institution. The FE-SEM will replace an aging 2011-era instrument that experienced irreparable component failure in September 2024 and can no longer be serviced due to parts unavailability. The new microscope will provide secondary electron imaging for high-resolution surface detail analysis and three-dimensional volume reconstruction capabilities through serial block-face imaging methodology, enabling researchers to acquire sequential z-stack images of samples. The AIF currently supports 143 principal investigator laboratories at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, including numerous NIH-funded researchers, with the existing microscope demonstrating significant utilization of 1,987 hours from January through August 2024 alone. The replacement instrument will restore and enhance cutting-edge microscopy capabilities essential to ongoing collaborative and multidisciplinary biomedical research projects across the institution.Federal Grant Award Summary
