Equipment for Undergraduate Instruction in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and their Applications in Biotechnology.

目前正在开设两门实验课程，让生物学专业的本科生体验现代生物化学和分子生物学的最新技术。该项目的重点是为西班牙裔妇女和其他少数民族和非传统学生在当地以生物技术为基础的行业就业做好准备。受影响的课程包括（除生物化学外）DNA技术、遗传学和免疫学。现有的分光光度计、超离心和同位素计数设备正由通过这笔赠款获得的必要的额外电泳和色谱设备加以补充，从而有可能在以前缺乏这种机会的课程中提供实验室工作。

Two laboratory courses are being developed which are giving undergraduate Biology majors experience with state-of-the-art techniques in modern Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. The project's focus is on preparing Hispanic women and other minority and non-traditional students for careers in local Biotechnology-based industries. Courses affected include (in addition to Biochemistry) DNA Technology, Genetics and Immunology. Existing equipment for spectrophotometry, ultracentrifugation and isotope counting is being supplemented by essential additional electrophoretic and chromatographic equipment obtained through this grant, making it possible to offer laboratory work in courses where previously such opportunities were lacking.
