Abstract

Project Summary The Rhode Island IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (RI-INBRE) program aims to improve institutional biomedical research capacity and expand student training opportunities in Rhode Island. These goals are accomplished by supporting faculty development and providing hands-on instrument training. This administrative supplement requests a helium recycling system funding for Brown University's Structural Biology NMR facility, one of several RI-INBRE CRCF Extension Laboratories (CELs). High-resolution NMR spectrometers for biomolecular work require superconducting magnets cooled by liquid helium. There is a helium shortage that is threatening NMR systems worldwide. The requested system will allow recycling helium to reduce consumption, conserving this non-renewable resource.
