The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded ASU’s Center for NanoBiotechnology Research (CNBR) a five-year grant totaling $4,995,710 that could help the Center conduct important research to diagnose and treat diseases.

The CNBR was established in 2007 to enhance the University’s research infrastructure and to train faculty and students in the new emerging areas of nanotechnology and nanobiotechnology.

Dr. Shree R. Singh, CNBR director and professor of microbiology at ASU, said the new five-year grant was awarded based on the Center’s accomplishments during the last five years.

“With the new $5 million funding from the NSF, the CNBR at ASU moves its research to a very new field of nanogenomics and will provide training to many students and scientists in this field. Also, this research area has a huge potential in developing innovative materials that can be used for diagnosis and treatment of human diseases,â€￾ Singh said.
