led experimental plans, including how each would implement research tools from Exiqon. The two winners were faced with strong competition. Submission statistics for the grant program, divulged by Exiqon, revealed a significant response from the research community at large, including nearly 200 informational requests, and more than 90 qualified applications received as of June 15th, the program's deadline.

"The level of response we have received to this program has, quite frankly, exceeded our initial expectations," said Chris Harbert, Director of Marketing, Exiqon North American Life Sciences. "The range of pathologies indicated in the pool of applications clearly illustrates the importance of microRNA investigation in current biomedical research, and reaffirms the strong need for available tools and funding opportunities in this field. We are very proud to help support Dr. Zhang and Dr. Sugatani seek new breakthroughs in microRNA research. It will be exciting to see what unfolds."

The two award winners will split the grant program seed funding of $25,000. Both grant finalists may use Exiqon Grant Program awards for the purchase of any Exiqon microRNA product or service. Exiqon offers a complete product line for microRNA investigation, including products for RNA isolation, Microarray analysis, qRT-PCR analysis, Northern Blotting, In Situ Hybridization, and Knockdown studies. Exiqon also offers microRNA profiling services for both microarray and qRT-PCR analysis, complete with full sample QC and customized data analysis and reporting.
