Closed Solicitation · DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
AI Summary
The National Institutes of Health seeks a pulsed 920 nm laser for neural processing studies in the retina. The laser must meet specific technical requirements, including pulse duration and peak power. Installation support and training will be provided by the contractor. This opportunity is classified as a product procurement.
Requirements
Background:
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Synaptic Physiology Section (SPS) needs a pulsed 920 nm laser for studying neural processing in the retina. The program area cannot use visible lasers for experiments because they activate the retinal photoreceptors directly. The current preexisting LSM 510 only has visible lasers, but has an access port for piping in a pulsed infrared laser. The program area needs to be able to scan for neural activity with the pulsed IR laser while stimulating the retina with visible movies projected through microscope’s condenser.
Special Order Requirements:
The following product features/characteristics are required:
Training:
The contractor shall provide any standard installation support and software configuration assistance necessary to ensure successful implementation of the hardware.
Additional training, if required, shall be coordinated with the NINDS SPS.
