Farmington, Conn. (WTNH) – The University of Connecticut is building a new data processing and analysis center for their health center. It will house a nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), which lets researchers look at biological molecules at the atomic level.
“UConn Health is ideally suited for this type of prestigious national center,” says UConn’s Vice President for Research, Jeffrey Seemann, Ph.D. “It builds on substantial investments made by the University in network infrastructure, and allows investigators from UConn and across the U.S. access to high performance tools to drive technology development and research breakthroughs.”
Awarded $6.4 million in grant funding from the National Institute for General Medical Sciences within the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Center will provide U.S. investigators access to a single, downloadable package through a cloud-based platform. UConn Health and University of Wisconsin investigators will collaborate to operate the national center.
Note as regards the collaboration with the University of Wisconsin:
The University of Wisconsin is categorized as an RU/VH Research University (very high research activity) in the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education In 2012, it had research expenditures of more than $1.1 billion, the third highest among universities in the country. Wisconsin is a founding member of the Association of American Universities.
