9321714 MUSCATINE This Faculty Research Fellowship in Marine Biotechnology will permit the PI, Dr. Leonard Muscatine, to spend a total of 9 months (6 month sabbatical and 3 month fellowship) in the laboratory of Dr. Paul Levine to investigate the molecular biology of thermal stress in the symbiotic anemone, Aiptasia pulchella. Ongoing research in Dr. Muscatine's laboratory is focussed, in part, on the mechanism by which thermal stress destabilizes the symbiosis of cnidarians and symbiotic dinoflagellates. The PI will learn protein and nucleic acid techniques while investigating the nature of the proteins synthesized as a consequence of both low and high temperature stress. This fellowship will provide Dr. Muscatine, a world renowned expert in marine symbioses, the opportunity to acquire the rapidly developing molecular biology tools he needs to keep his research at the cutting edge. ***

这项海洋生物技术学院研究奖学金将允许PI Leonard MUSCATINE博士在Paul Levine博士的实验室中花费总共9个月的时间（6个月的休假和3个月的奖学金）来研究共生海葵（Aiptasia pulchella）的热胁迫分子生物学。马斯卡廷博士的实验室正在进行的研究部分集中在热应激破坏刺胞动物和共生鞭毛藻共生的机制上。PI将学习蛋白质和核酸技术，同时研究由于低温和高温胁迫而合成的蛋白质的性质。马斯卡廷博士是世界著名的海洋共生研究专家，此次奖学金将为他提供获取快速发展的分子生物学工具的机会，使他的研究保持在前沿。＊＊＊
