Ten Week Summer Research for Five College Teachers with Emphasis in Bioanalytical Chemistry

这个项目是在分析化学的一般领域，广义上定义。在1988年6月1日至1988年8月31日的10周期间，来自不提供化学博士学位的大学的5名教员将与来自堪萨斯大学（KU）生物分析研究中心（CBAR）的10名教员就生物分析化学的各个方面进行合作研究。研究参与者将从那些谁响应库的夏季研究计划的公告中选择;这一公告已针对在堪萨斯附近的十个中西部州。这项活动类似于通过NSF研究机会奖（ROA）对本科院校教师的支持。然而，在这个项目中，来自本科院校的参与教师不一定会与特定的CBAR教师预先安排他们的夏季研究活动。相反，他们将建立他们的合作安排后，他们有机会充分考虑所有的研究项目的主办机构参与教师。除了该计划的研究重点外，CBAR教师还将提供一系列教程，涵盖构成现代化学分析的当前研究工具和主题，特别强调生物分析化学的研究机会，随后可以在参与本科教师的家庭机构实施。此外，来自联邦和私营部门资助机构的代表，有强烈的承诺，以支持本科院校的质量研究计划将解决与会者和描述的机会，使这种支持可以竞争性地寻求。这个为期三年的项目可以预期将吸引越来越多的学生进入分析化学的职业生涯，开始建立一个网络的重要，学术分析化学家在中西部的本科院校。

This project is in the general area of analytical chemistry, broadly defined. During a ten-week period between 1 June 1988 and 31 August 1988, five faculty members from colleges that do not offer the PhD degree in chemistry will carry out collaborative research on various aspects of bioanalytical chemistry with ten faculty members from the Center for Bioanalytical Research (CBAR) at the University of Kansas (KU). Research participants will be selected from among those who respond to KU's announcement of the summer research program; this announcement has been targeted at ten midwestern states in the vicinity of Kansas. This activity is analogous to the support of faculty from undergraduate institutions through NSF Research Opportunity Awards (ROAs). In this project, however, participating faculty from the undergraduate institutions will not have necessarily prearranged their summer research activities with particular CBAR faculty members. Rather, they will establish their collaborative arrangements after they have had an opportunity to consider fully all of the research programs of the host institution participating faculty. In addition to the research thrust of this program, CBAR faculty will present a series of tutorials covering current research tools and topics that constitute modern chemical analysis, with particular emphasis on research opportunities in bioanalytical chemistry that could be implemented subsequently at the home institutions of the participating undergraduate faculty members. Also, representatives from Federal and private sector funding agencies that have strong commitments to the support of quality research programs in undergraduate institutions will address the participants and describe opportunities whereby such support can be competitively sought. This three-year project can be expected to lead to the attraction of increased numbers of students into careers in analytical chemistry by beginning to establish a network of vital, academic analytical chemists at undergraduate institutions in the midwest.
