MRI: Acquisition of a Confocal Microscope to Advance Interdepartmental Research and Training in Biomolecular Sciences at UW - La Crosse

该奖项为具有不同研究兴趣的跨部门教师组购买激光扫描共聚焦显微镜提供资金。 这是仪器的最重要的一块，以推进这些教师在生物学，化学和微生物学部门的研究和教育目标。共焦显微镜将用于培训200多名学生，每年通过实验室为基础的课程，以及其他学生参与研究。这种培训将提高这些学生的技术专长，他们将进入研究生院和劳动力市场。

This award funds the acquisition of a laser scanning confocal microscope for an interdepartmental group of faculty with diverse research interests. This is the single most important piece of instrumentation to advance the research and education goals of these faculty in the departments of Biology, Chemistry, and Microbiology. The confocal microscope will be used in the training of over 200 students per year through laboratory-based courses, as well as other students involved in research. This training will increase the technological expertise of these students, who will enter graduate schools and the workforce.
