9311701 Willows The Friday Harbor (FHL) is the marine biological facility of the University of Washington. It offers biological resources and scientific facilities in support of the work of marine scientists from national and international institutions. FHL is located in the San Juan Islands in the State of Washington at the junction between Puget Sound, Juan de Fuca Strait and Georgia Strait where an unusual diversity and richness of marine life occurs. Topics of research range from cell biology to community ecology and engage zoologists, fisheries biologists, Oceanographers, botanists, paleobiolgists, and researchers from various biomedical fields. Some organisms are studied because of their ecological importance, others because they are useful models for the study of ecological, developmental, or physiological processes. At FHL, a high priority is placed upon providing a suitable environment (instrumentation, field biological resources, logistical support) for research that requires marine organisms. Although over 90% of the FHL operating budget comes from State of Washington, over 65% of the scientific people whose work is supported by FHL are from institutions outside the State of Washington. The University of Washington has recently completed an extensive review of physical facilities, and academic programs of the FHL. Recommendations include extensive replacement and modernization of facilities over 10 years. The University has committed significant resources to the first component of this modernization program. This project will provide for replacement of one microscope, as a part of that renewal. ***

9311701 Willows 星期五港 (FHL) 是华盛顿大学的海洋生物设施。 它提供生物资源和科学设施，支持国家和国际机构海洋科学家的工作。 FHL 位于华盛顿州的圣胡安群岛，位于普吉特海湾、胡安德富卡海峡和乔治亚海峡的交界处，这里的海洋生物异常多样和丰富。 研究主题从细胞生物学到群落生态学，涉及动物学家、渔业生物学家、海洋学家、植物学家、古生物学家和来自各个生物医学领域的研究人员。 研究一些生物体是因为它们的生态重要性，另一些生物体是因为它们是研究生态、发育或生理过程的有用模型。 FHL 高度重视为需要海洋生物的研究提供合适的环境（仪器、现场生物资源、后勤支持）。 尽管 FHL 90% 以上的运营预算来自华盛顿州，但 FHL 支持的科研人员中 65% 以上来自华盛顿州以外的机构。 华盛顿大学最近完成了对 FHL 物理设施和学术项目的广泛审查。 建议包括在 10 年内对设施进行广泛的更换和现代化改造。 该大学已为该现代化计划的第一个组成部分投入了大量资源。 作为更新的一部分，该项目将更换一台显微镜。 ***
