Modern Equipment for Shared-use Biomedical Research Facilities: Advancing Research-Related Operations
Funds up to $350,000 of equipment that keeps a shared research facility running — but explicitly not scientific instruments. A cost share is required.
This is an unusual award because of what it will not pay for. It modernises the operations around research rather than the research itself.
Eligible academic and research institutions can buy current equipment that improves how an existing shared biomedical research facility runs — laboratory core facilities, animal research facilities and similar shared spaces. The stated goal is strengthening r…
Purchasing current equipment to modernise the research-supporting operations of existing shared biomedical research facilities — laboratory core facilities, animal research facilities and similar shared-use spaces — excluding scientific research instruments and their components and excluding building-level infrastructure.
