The University awarded a contract for a MFP-3D-BIO Atomic Force Microscope System .
This emergency/quick purchase was required due to a situation in which items available on the spot market or at discounted prices were available for a limited time such that sound business judgment mandated a purchase immediately to take advantage of the availability and price.
Oxford Instruments will manufacture the same instrument specifications that the Associate Professor of Bioengineering was utilizing as his previous institution. He just came to the University of Illinois at Chicago in September 2015. Therefore, this instrument has been configured/customized so that the ongoing research can be performed. This medical research involves studying molecular, membrane and cell mechanics, and morphology, which will be related to pathology of neurodegenerative diseases.
