Drs. Sarah Carmichael, Gabriele Casale, Jamie Levine, and Ellen Cowan from Geological and Environmental Sciences and Dr. Guichuan Hou from Biology were awarded $562,842 from the National Science Foundation (NSF MRI # 1625137) to purchase a new scanning electron microscope, and the instrument is now up and running in the Dewel Microscopy Facility. The instrument is a JEOL JSM IT300LV SEM with Oxford silicon drift EDS and EBSD detectors, as well as a Gatan ChromaCL detector.
