The objective of this project is to provide research-like experiences for lower-level undergraduates in an introductory cell biology course. Making use of the eight spectrophotometers acquired with the grant, students are guided through an open-ended, individualized series of experiments on the biology of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase. This enzyme has practical significance both in clinical diagnoses and basic research, but its biological function is not readily apparent. Thus students quickly recognize that they can make contributions to the knowledge base early in their academic lives, building the confidence and expertise that will encourage them to consider biology as a career.

该项目的目标是提供类似研究的 低年级本科生在入门牢房的经验 生物课。 利用八个温度计 获得补助金，学生被引导通过一个开放式的， 酶生物学的个性化系列实验 碱性磷酸酶 该酶具有实际意义， 在临床诊断和基础研究中， 功能并不明显。 因此学生们很快就认识到 他们可以在早期为知识库做出贡献， 他们的学术生活，建立信心和专业知识， 会鼓励他们把生物学作为一种职业。
