UMass to get $10M for emerging tech center
Abstract:
The Massachusetts Life Sciences Center said it has approved a $10 million capital grant to support construction of UMass Lowell's Emerging Technologies and Innovation Center (ETIC).
The grant will fund research facilities at the new center, giving the university and companies access to cleanrooms that the school said are unparalleled in that region of the Commonwealth. The center also has a state-of-the-art lab focused on developing new medical applications and other capabilities tied to nanotech, bio-optics and other technologies.
