An award has been made to Fairleigh Dickinson University under the direction of Dr. Patricia Melloy to acquire a fluorescence microscopy system for research and teaching at the university. The instrument will allow high resolution visualization of cells and their internal structures using fluorescent dyes. Biomolecules within cells can be tagged with fluorescent dyes to understand the location and function of proteins and other important cell components. Research projects that will benefit include studies of cell division in yeast and proteins neural tissue. The instrument will be used in undergraduate courses in biology and chemistry, and in courses for training future science teachers.

在Patricia Melloy博士的指导下，Fairleigh Dickinson大学获得了一项奖励，以获得用于该大学研究和教学的荧光显微镜系统。该仪器将允许使用荧光染料对细胞及其内部结构进行高分辨率可视化。细胞内的生物分子可以用荧光染料标记，以了解蛋白质和其他重要细胞成分的位置和功能。将受益的研究项目包括酵母和蛋白质神经组织的细胞分裂研究。该仪器将用于生物和化学本科课程，以及培训未来科学教师的课程。
