Research Equipment Available for Use
One of the main objectives of IMCI is to support faculty in their interdisciplinary research. And one of the ways we do that is by helping the U of I acquire large pieces of equipment that would otherwise be unattainable. That means from time to time we:
- Purchase equipment outright in support of the CMCI COBRE grant, usually as part of a specific pilot or research project.
- Contribute funds towards the purchase of equipment that will build and improve upon the U of I’s research infrastructure.
- Spearhead a collaborative purchasing initiative, negotiating and coordinating between researchers and departments to collect sufficient funding for a particular piece of equipment.
VIEW THE LIST of major equipment we’ve purchased (in whole or in part) to date, that is available to the U of I research community to use as needed.
