This branch supports research to discover, create and develop innovative technologies for biomedical research. Technology development often requires multidisciplinary and team-oriented approaches and can lead to new or improved instrument development that has broad application to medical research. Areas of emphasis include computational infrastructure, molecular imaging and dynamics, and technologies to elucidate structural and functional biology.
Technologies that have been developed by NIGMS and demonstrate high value to the biomedical research community are supported as scientific research resources. These include centers that provide access to valuable instrumentation, staff expertise and user training. They may also include computational tools, methods, protocols and reagents.
