JEOL MODEL JEM-1200EX TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPE

最先进的多用途JEOL型号JEM-1200 EX变速器 电子显微镜（以下简称JEOL-1200 EX） 被一个视觉研究小组要求共享使用， 正在进行的多学科和跨学科内容的研究计划。 新仪器将能够以高分辨率 传输模式，易于用于高效地获得大 许多聚焦显微照片，有一个立体测角器 和一个自动蒙太奇发生器， 可选的附件或修改，以供将来的现代化。 该仪器还将与我们的NEI资助的 视觉研究培训计划，使用新的EM， 学员进行研究有关的具体目标之一， 或更多导师资助的研究项目。 的 JEOL 1200 EX将大大有利于目前和未来的活动 通过提供目前不可用的仪器功能，或 我们的能力非常有限 的这两份研究报告 主要用户显然与不同的重叠领域相互关联 并代表多学科的研究方法， 视觉研究和神经生物学。 该工具不仅 有助于这些眼睛和视觉的相关研究 大脑的中心，但将提供一个设施， 这些领域的合作者和其他潜在用户， 视觉研究社区的整体研究能力 在华盛顿大学。

A state-of-the-art, multipurpose JEOL Model JEM-1200EX transmission electron microscope (hereafter referred to as the JEOL-1200EX) is requested for shared use by a vision research group with active, ongoing research programs of multi- and interdisciplinary content. The new instrument will be capable of operationin a high-resolution transmission mode, easily used for efficiently obtaining large numbers of in-focus micrographs, have a goniometer for stereoscopy and an automatic montage generator, and will have available optional attachments or modifications for future modernization. The instrument will also be used in conjunction with our NEI-funded vision research training program, with use of the new EM by trainees conducting research related to the specific aims of one or more of their preceptor(s)' funded research projects. The JEOL1200EX will substantially benefit present and future activities by providing instrument features that are currently unavalable, or to which our availability is highly limited. The studies of the major users are clearly interrelated with distinct areas of overlap and represent multi-interdisciplinary approaches to studies in vision research and neurobiology. The instrument will not only contribute to these correlative studies of the eye and visual centrers of the brain, but will provide a facility for collaborators and other potential users in these areas, expanding the overall research capabilities of the vision research community at the Universtiy of Washington.
