ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - The University of Michigan is opening a $46 million complex for researchers to study nanotechnologies in energy, biotechnology and other fields. <\/p>\n
The Center of Excellence in Nano Mechanical Science and Engineering is a 62,000-square-foot addition to laboratories on the Ann Arbor schools north campus. Researchers will be able to watch the degradation of materials that go into things like cars and medical devices. <\/p>\n
Researchers also will be able to use tissue culture rooms to grow cells to do cancer research or test blood infections. Specially designed chambers will allow a team to study how a single molecule of DNA responds to slight forces, which could provide insight into genetic diseases. <\/p>\n
Gov. Rick Snyder, University of Michigan Mark Schlissel and other will speak at the grand opening Friday morning. <\/p>\n
