Abstract

The current proposal aims to significantly enhance our research capability by adding an LSM 900 KMAT confocal microscope to our microscopy facility. Furthermore, we propose the immediate replacement of the current equipment, which is partially operational, representing a challenge for the scientific community that depends on our facilities. (AU)
