Summary
Biomedical Engineering Sensing and Imaging Facility. The sensing and imaging facility will be the only national facility for leading engineering and medical researchers to undertake multidiscipline research into live and model biological systems. The facility will capture and combine existing strengths in these fields in Melbourne. This will provide new insights into the physiology of human, animal and plant systems and the development of preventive and curative strategies for disease.

Summary
Adelaide Core Live Organism Imaging Facility. Live organism imaging represents a powerful and essential tool in many aspects of modern biology. This application is for the purchase of two major items of equipment: a Xenogen IVIS Imaging System 200 and a Skyscan 1076_in vivo micro-CT scanner. As there are presently no machines within Adelaide capable of real-time live animal and plant imaging, scientific progress in a number of projects is significantly restricted.

This application is for the purchase of two major items of equipment: a Xenogen IVIS Imaging System 200 and a Skyscan 1076_in vivo micro-CT scanner. As there are presently no machines within Adelaide capable of real-time live animal and plant imaging, scientific progress in a number of projects is significantly restricted. The acquisition of a state-of-the-art live organism imaging facility in Adelaide would be a major advance for investigators within the Adelaide bioscience community and would increase their research productivity and international competitivenessRead moreRead less
