The goal of the project is to improve the cell and molecular biology curriculum at the Department of Biology at Central Michigan University, The project will (1) develop a hands-on, instrument-based, course in microscopy; (2) improve the quality and effectiveness of laboratories in existing courses in Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Methods in Molecular Biology, and Electron Microscopy for a strongly research oriented undergraduate program. The equipment requested includes high quality light microscopes equipped with optics and accessories designed with multiple applications of brightfield, phase, polarizing, DIC and epifluorescence, and a state-of-the-art image processing and analysis system. These new microscopes and one existing transmission and two scanning electron microscopes, one of which is equipped for x-ray (EDS), will interface, by film and video, with the image processor. Bench-type laboratory courses and activities which expose students to the practical use of instrumentation in real experimental situations will use this integrated imaging system.

该项目的目标是改善细胞和分子 中环大学生物系的生物课程 密歇根大学，该项目将（1）开发一个动手， 仪器为基础，显微镜课程;（2）提高 现有课程实验室的质量和效率 细胞生物学，分子生物学，分子生物学方法 生物学和电子显微镜进行了强有力的研究 定向本科课程。 所要求的设备 包括配备光学元件的高质量光学显微镜 和配件设计的多种应用 明场、相位、偏振、DIC和落射荧光，以及 最先进的图像处理和分析系统 这些 新的显微镜和一个现有的传输和两个扫描 电子显微镜，其中一个配备了X射线（EDS）， 将通过胶片和视频与图像处理器连接。 台式实验室课程和活动， 使学生能够在真实的中实际使用仪器仪表 实验情况将使用这种集成成像 系统
