项目摘要

This award will provide funding for the renovation of biology research and research training laboratories on the campus of La Sierra University. The Department of Biology is housed in Palmer Hall, a 41 year old structure that has never been renovated. Current research facilities are inadequate to support research and research training activities conducted by faculty and students. Poor environmental control in rooms often jeopardizes the integrity of experiments, and the lack of ample electrical service overloads circuits. Because the building has never been remodeled, much of the facility does not meet electrical and plumbing codes. The plumbing system does not have backflow protection and many of the research laboratories are not equipped for the delivery of distilled water. Installation of fixed equipment such as fume hoods and reinforced cabinets, provide for the capability of storing hazardous chemicals, mandated for a safe working atmosphere. Improvements to air quality and climate control will enhance the ability to do research in a controlled environment and will eliminate much loss of time and experiments due to contamination. In addition to providing a better and safer area for faculty to pursue their research, upgrading of these facilities will increase the number of students, giving them more access to research training.

该奖项将为拉谢拉大学校园内的生物学研究和研究培训实验室的翻新提供资金。生物学系设在帕尔默大厅，一个41岁的结构，从来没有翻新。目前的研究设施不足以支持教师和学生进行的研究和研究培训活动。房间内环境控制不良往往会危及实验的完整性，并且缺乏充足的电气服务会使电路过载。由于这座建筑从未改造过，大部分设施都不符合电气和管道规范。管道系统没有防回流保护，许多研究实验室没有蒸馏水输送设备。安装固定设备，如通风橱和加固柜，提供储存危险化学品的能力，要求有一个安全的工作环境。空气质量和气候控制的改善将提高在受控环境中进行研究的能力，并将消除由于污染而造成的大量时间和实验损失。除了为教师提供更好和更安全的研究区域外，这些设施的升级将增加学生人数，使他们有更多的机会接受研究培训。
