MRI: Acquisition of a Scanning Electron Microscope to Advance Research and Education at Clarion University

该奖项授予宾夕法尼亚州克拉里昂大学，用于收购蔡司EVO LS 10扫描电子显微镜（SEM）。 该SEM的多种功能，如高分辨率，元素分析能力和环境模式，满足了物理学，生物学和人类学等学科研究人员的需求，使他们能够进行协作，创造性和创新性的项目，显着推进各自领域的知识。 SEM的收购预计将改变教师和学生在宾夕法尼亚州西部农村地区接受科学培训和教育的方式。 此外，歌乐还与巴恩斯生物技术业务发展中心合作，该中心是宾夕法尼亚州资助的基石创新区（KIZ）计划的产物。 巴恩斯中心的高科技公司将有机会进入SEM，鼓励进一步创业，并为教师和学生提供新的研究伙伴关系和培训机会。

This award to Clarion University of Pennsylvania is for the acquisition of a Zeiss EVO LS10 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The multiple functions of this SEM, such as high resolution, elemental analysis capability, and environmental mode, satisfies the needs of researchers across the disciplines of physics, biology, and anthropology, enabling them to conduct collaborative, creative, and innovative projects that significantly advance the knowledge of their respective fields. The acquisition of the SEM is expected to transform how teachers and students are trained and educated in the sciences in rural western Pennsylvania. Additionally, Clarion is partnered with the Barnes Center for Biotechnology Business Development, a product of the Keystone Innovation Zone (KIZ) program funded by the State of Pennsylvania. The high-tech companies in the Barnes Center will have access to the SEM, encouraging further entrepreneurship and providing new research partnerships and training opportunities for faculty and students.
