An award has been made to the Mt. Desert Island Biological Laboratory under the direction of Dr. David Towle to acquire a phosphorimager for research and education in genomics at the marine biological laboratory. The instrument will provide a significant upgrade to the current capability of the researchers to capture images the results of experiments analyzing DNA. Research projects include regulation of sperm formation in vertebrates, ion exchange in fish gills, and gene expression during the development of sea urchin embryos. The laboratory hosts a large number of visiting scientists and students each year that will benefit from having the phosphorimager on site at this island marine lab. Each year the laboratory hosts students in an NSF-funded program of Research Experiences for Undergraduates, which has included a large percentage of students from groups traditionally underrepresented in science.

一个奖项已经作出了山。在大卫托尔博士的指导下，荒岛生物实验室获得了一台磷光成像仪，用于海洋生物实验室的基因组学研究和教育。 该仪器将为研究人员捕获DNA分析实验结果图像的能力提供重大升级。 研究项目包括脊椎动物精子形成的调节、鱼鳃中的离子交换和海胆胚胎发育过程中的基因表达。 该实验室每年接待大量来访的科学家和学生，他们将从岛上海洋实验室的磷光成像仪中受益。 每年，该实验室都会举办一个由NSF资助的本科生研究经验项目，其中包括来自传统上在科学领域代表性不足的群体的大部分学生。
