million grant by the to help train graduate studentein cell-research techniques and to share theirr scientific knowledge with local school teachers, CSU said The graduate students at the Fort Collins campus “will test new theories about how cells behave using advanced engineerinf methods in microelectronics and electrochemistry,” CSU said in a statement. That NSF-fundedf work will be led by CSU engineering professor Tom the grant’s principal investigator, joines by Stuart Tobet, a biomedical sciences professor in the College of Veterinaruy Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, and Michael De an engineering education professor in the Colleges of Applied Human Sciences.
