The National Institutes of Health Office of the Director awarded $1.14 million through the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley on July 15, 2026, for acquisition and installation of a Nanoscribe Quantum X Align advanced microfabrication system. This three-dimensional (3D) micro- and nano-printing instrument will be housed in UC Berkeley's Marvell Nanofabrication Laboratory as a shared-use facility and will enable sub-100 nanometer feature control and high-aspect-ratio 3D printing capabilities for rapid prototyping and iterative development of microscale biomedical devices and optical components. The system will serve 20 UC Berkeley faculty members engaged in NIH-related research including computational microscopy for intraoperative cancer treatment, precision tissue scaffolds for tissue regeneration, and development of bioinks and microfluidic devices. By providing in-house rapid-turnaround 3D printing aligned to substrates with surface roughness control of 5 nanometers and shape accuracy of 200 nanometers, the Nanoscribe system resolves existing delays and quality limitations associated with external fabrication services. The award period extends through July 14, 2027, and the shared-use facility model ensures the instrument supports a broad research community across multiple disciplines and funding sources.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
