Brown, Texas A&amp;M University at Galveston, Texas A&amp;M AgriLife Research. His proposal,\u00a0<em>Elucidating the impacts of seasonal variation and contaminant suppressants in algal cultures using FlowCAM<\/em>, was selected after a series of in-depth reviews by a panel of independent industry experts in the Algae Technology field. Judging criteria included scientific merit, appropriate use of the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fluidimaging.com\/products-benchtop.htm\">FlowCAM\u00ae<\/a>\u00a0and the ability to obtain measurable results during a research period of four months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m very excited and appreciative to have this opportunity,\u201d said Louis R. Brown, Ph.D. student and Project Manager, Pecos Algae Facility, Texas A&amp;M AgriLife Research. \u201cHaving use of a FlowCAM will enhance my research capabilities and provide a valuable tool for the advancement of large scale cultivation techniques.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brown has received the use of a FlowCAM, a digital imaging particle analyzer from Fluid Imaging Technologies, as well as comprehensive instrument training and on-going technical support throughout the research project. Brown will also receive a paid trip to a North American conference specific to algae technology to present his research findings.<\/p>\n<p>Students whose research involves the study of marine or freshwater microbial systems are encouraged to apply for the use of a FlowCAM to support their research.
