The goal of this project is to equip the laboratory for a new, required course in Cellular and Molecular Biology. This course has been moved to the college's unique Spring Short Term to allow improvement and expansion of the laboratory experience afforded the students. (During this Spring Term, Bates students immerse themselves in a single course. This scheduling permits longer, more open-ended laboratory experiences than are possible to fit into the normal laboratory period of three or four hours.) The new equipment also will allow more individualized student instruction in such basic techniques as cell fractionation, electrophoresis, column chromatography, enzymology, and cell culturing. The improvements made through this award are expected to strengthen significantly the technical skills of students in this course, and to have a major secondary effect on the advanced laboratory electives currently taught in the Department. Instruments procured through the award include ultracentrifuges, a 12-port filtering manifold, tissue culture and cell harvesting apparati, electrophoresis equipment, fraction collectors and other chromatography instruments.

该项目的目标是为实验室提供细胞和分子生物学的新必修课程。本课程已移至学院独特的春季短期课程，以改善和扩展学生的实验室经验。(在这个春季学期，贝茨的学生们沉浸在一门课程中。这种安排允许更长时间，更开放的实验室体验，而不是可能适合正常的三到四个小时的实验室时间。新设备还将允许更多的个性化的学生指导，如细胞分离，电泳，柱层析，酶学和细胞培养等基本技术。通过这个奖项所取得的进步，预计将大大加强学生在这门课程中的技术技能，并对目前在本系教授的高级实验室选修课程产生重大的次要影响。通过该合同采购的仪器包括超离心机、12端口过滤歧管、组织培养和细胞收获装置、电泳设备、馏分收集器和其他色谱仪器。
