This project has provided matching funds to purchase a combined                 transmission and scanning electron microscope (TEM/SEM) to provide              enhanced opportunities for students to study and experiment at the              cellular level.  Central to this development is a course in The Theory          and Techniques of Electron Microscopy, designed to familiarize students         with the principles of TEM and SEM design and operation.  Through               intensive laboratory instruction, students gain "hands-on" experience in        TEM and SEM techniques and operation which then is applied to selected          research projects.  The new TEM/SEM enriches laboratory exercises at all        levels of the biology program by focusing attention on the cellular             aspects of organismal structure, and provides new opportunities for             student independent and honors research in Biology.
