Biological Facilities Center

该奖项将资助为斯坦福大学生物系成员购买各种设备，这些设备将被安置在一个中央共享仪器设施中。这些物品包括一个闪烁计数器，超离心机和转子，一个酶联免疫吸附测定仪和一个蛋白质测序仪。这些物品是通用的；该部门的所有20名成员都将共享它们的使用。最近，许多（如果不是全部的话）生物学研究领域的进展都依赖于最初为分子生物学和免疫学开发的仪器和技术。这些设备项目将增加斯坦福大学许多此类技术所需仪器的供应，从而促进这个全国最好的部门之一的成员的研究。

This award will fund the purchase of varied items of equipment to be housed in a central shared instrumentation facility for members of the Department of Biology at Stanford University. The items include a scintillation counter, ultracentrifuges and rotors, an ELISA plate reader and a protein sequencer. These items are of general use; all 20 members of the department will share in their use. Recently, progress in many, if not all, areas of biological research has depended on instruments and techniques originally developed for molecular biology and immunology. These equipment items will augment the supply at Stanford of instruments needed for a number of such techniques and thus facillitate research by members of a department which is one of the best in the country.
