Lund University has allocated funds to support local research infrastructure, announced through an annual call and evaluated by the University Research Board. Researchers can apply for funding for advanced instruments, electronic archives/databases, as well as technical staff or user support to ensure long-term use, maintenance, and development of key research infrastructure. Funding ranges from SEK 250,000 to SEK 1 million per year, for a maximum of five years.
For the period 2026–2030, the university has decided to distribute SEK 19.7 million to 11 principal applicants, covering both direct and indirect costs.
We are delighted to have been awarded SEK 2 million for the project “Bringing data-driven live-cell super-resolution 3D-microscopy to Lund University.”
This funding will strengthen LBIC’s capabilities in providing scientists at Lund University with state-of-the-art tools for bioimaging and enable researchers to explore cellular processes in detail.
