The Indiana Metabolomics and Cytomics Initiative (METACyt), funded by a $53 million grant from the Lilly Endowment, seeks to advance life sciences research at IU Bloomington and in the state of Indiana. METACyt funding directly affects four broad areas of campus science:
- research initiatives
- service / research facilities
- infrastructure
- economic development
METACyt comprises five research nodes and four integrating science and technology centers (ISTCs). Over the next five years, the METACyt Initiative will invest approximately $25 million in the research nodes and $10 million in the ISTCs. The METACyt Initiative provides extensive funding for investment in infrastructure in new greenhouse facilities, transgenic animal facilities, supercomputing, and nuclear magnetic resonance instrumentation.
