Big Ideas, Small Features: Utilizing Advanced Microscopic and Nanoscale Technologies to Further Human Healthcare Funded Projects
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This initiative of the Harvard Catalyst Reactor Program provided funding of up to $50,000 in funding and access to the Harvard Center for Biological Imaging (HCBI), which features advanced Zeiss microscopes, or the Center for Nanoscale Systems (CNS), that offers electron microscopy, nanoscale fabrication, and nanoscale analysis capabilities, or access to both. Funding will support the innovative application of light and electron microscopy, nanoscale fabrication, and nanoscale analysis technologies for big ideas that will advance clinical healthcare.
