This Academic Research Facilities Modernization Program (ARFMP) award from the Research Facilities Office provides funds to Ithaca College for the replacement of obsolete plant growth facilities by a new Controlled Environment Laboratory Complex for plant and invertebrate research. This complex will be a part of a new science building which will house Ithaca College's biological research and research training activities. This building to be replaced was constructed in 1964 and has not been renovated since that time and its replacement is fully justified and cost- effective. The ARFMP grant of $375,000 and $378,220 provided by the grantee as cost sharing will be used to modernize these research and research training facilities. This project will address the need to improve the current research infrastructure by providing modern facilities essential to continued research productivity and the training of undergraduates for advanced work. The replacement will provide a new greenhouse, plant growth rooms, plant growth and insect chambers, and space for tissue culture work. This award contributes to the infrastructure of science by providing an improved environment for the conduct of research and for the training of quality undergraduate students many of whom continue on for advanced training. Students trained in these laboratories will be able to participate in crucial areas of plant research including environmental protection, evolutionary genetics, plant development, and plant molecular genetics as well as in research on insects and other invertebrates.

学术研究设施现代化计划（ARFMP） 研究设施办公室的一项奖励为伊萨卡提供资金 更换过时的植物生长设施， 一个新的受控环境实验室综合设施， 无脊椎动物研究 这个综合体将成为一个新的 科学大楼将容纳伊萨卡学院的生物 研究和研究培训活动。 这座建筑将成为 1964年建成，此后一直没有翻新。 这一时间及其更换是完全合理的，费用- 有效 非洲区域研究基金会提供了375，000美元和378，220美元的赠款， 作为费用分摊，受赠方将用于使这些系统现代化， 研究和研究培训设施。 该项目将 解决改善现有研究基础设施的需要， 为继续研究提供必要的现代化设施 生产力和培养大学生的先进工作。 更换将提供一个新的温室，植物生长室， 植物生长和昆虫室，以及组织培养空间 工作 该奖项有助于科学的基础设施， 为开展研究提供更好的环境， 培养高素质的本科生， 继续进行高级培训。 学生在这些培训 实验室将能够参与工厂的关键领域， 研究包括环境保护、进化 遗传学、植物发育和植物分子遗传学 比如昆虫和其他无脊椎动物的研究。
