The Agilent Solutions Innovation Research Award (SIRA) program is excited to announce a new Call for Proposals in 2023 on the Topic of Cell and Gene Therapy Research. Do you have a novel idea to incorporate flow cytometry into your Cell and Gene Therapy research? Or perhaps you have an idea to couple one of Agilent’s innovative cell analysis technologies with Flow Cytometry to advance research in Cell and Gene Therapy. Flow Cytometry, Seahorse, xCELLigence, and our BioTek Imaging, detection, and liquid handling platforms are all used in this important research.
Agilent is now accepting research proposals for the 2023 SIRA in the area of Cell and Gene Therapy Research. Two individual SIRA awards will be made for this Call:
- Flow Focus Award: The first award includes the free use of an Agilent NovoCyte Penteon Flow Cytometer featuring five lasers and 30 colors with installation and scientific support for the duration of a 12-month research project— to help you explore, enhance, and accelerate your Cell and Gene Therapy research.
- Cross-Platform Award: The second award includes the free use of an Agilent NovoCyte Penteon Flow Cytometer and one or more of the following Agilent instruments: Seahorse XFPro, BioTek Cytation 5, BioTek Multiflo FX, or xCELLigence-MP. Installation and scientific support for the duration of a 12-month research project will be included to help you explore, enhance, and accelerate your Cell and Gene Therapy research.
One SIRA award will be gifted in each category to the proposal that demonstrates the most innovative and impactful use of the technology to the research. This call for proposals is open to all Principal Investigators from degree-granting academic institutions and non-profit research organizations in North America.
