EQUIPMENT GRANT - DIGITAL INVERTED FLOURESCENT COMPOUND MICROSCOPE

该子项目是利用 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是 中心，不一定是研究者的机构。 本提案的目的是获得资金，以购买徕卡数字倒置荧光复合显微镜或同等产品，用于生物医学研究和教学。由于成像是中央的进步，在广泛的生物医学领域，4 SWOSU PI的提交本申请。所有PI都有从旅行到其他机构的传统荧光显微镜的经验，所有PI都计划进行蛋白质定位研究或希望在活标本中成像荧光标记。目前，我们没有荧光复合显微镜在SWOSU，所以许多科学家将有助于如果这项技术在校园里。所要求的设备还将大大加强对学生和研究人员的培训。这些受训人员和PI将能够继续进行目前由于不便和费用而搁置的项目。

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.
