Dr. Long is a leading investigator in the area of nitrogen- fixing symbioses between bacteria and leguminous plants, focusing on the identification and functions of bacterial genes involved in the establishment of the symbiotic nodule. The problem being addressed is the identification and characterization of a leguminous plant receptor for one of these bacterial gene products, which is a transmembrane signalling molecule. This award is a National Science Foundation Faculty Award for Women Scientists and Engineers. The proposal fulfills the FAW objectives, which are: 1, to recognize outstanding and promising women scientists and engineers in academic careers of research and teaching and 2, to facilitate the further development of their careers.

龙博士是细菌和豆科植物之间的固氮共生领域的主要研究人员，专注于与共生根瘤的建立有关的细菌基因的鉴定和功能。正在解决的问题是鉴定和表征这些细菌基因产物之一的豆科植物受体，它是一个跨膜信号分子。该奖项是国家科学基金会颁发给女科学家和女工程师的教师奖。该建议实现了一汽的目标，即：1，在研究和教学的学术生涯中表彰优秀和有前途的女科学家和工程师；2，促进她们事业的进一步发展。
