EQUIPMENT GRANT - DIGITAL INVERTED FLOURESCENT COMPOUND MICROSCOPE

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 这项提案的目标是获得资金，购买徕卡数字倒置荧光复合显微镜或类似物，用于生物医学研究和教学。由于成像是生物医学领域广泛进步的核心，4名SWOSU Pi提交了这份申请。所有PI都有前往其他机构使用传统荧光显微镜的经验，并且所有PI都计划进行蛋白质定位研究或希望对活标本中的荧光标记进行成像。目前，SWOSU没有荧光化合物显微镜，所以如果校园里有这项技术，很多科学家都会得到帮助。所需设备也将极大地加强对学生和研究人员的培训。这些受训人员以及私人投资主任将能够从事目前因不便和费用而被搁置的项目。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The goal of this proposal is to obtain funding to purchase a Leica Digital Inverted Fluorescent compound Microscope or equivalent to use in biomedical research and teaching. Because imaging is central to advances in a wide range of biomedical fields, 4 SWOSU PI's are submitting this application. All PIs have experience with conventional fluorescent microscopy from traveling to other institutions and all PIs plan to carry out protein localization studies or wish to image fluorescent markers in living specimens. Currently, we have no fluorescent compound microscope at SWOSU, so many scientist would be aided if this technology was available on campus. The equipments requested will also dramatically enhance training of student and researchers. These trainees and also the PIs will be able to pursue proiects that are currentlv set aside owing to inconvenience and expense.
