9502870 Gilbert This dissertation enhancement award supports a 3-month research visit in Japan for Philip Williams, a graduate student at Mississippi State University, who works under the direction of Professor Jerome A. Gilbert. Mr. Williams' three month stay in Japan will be hosted by the Professor Kazuhiko Ishihara at the Tokyo Medical and Dental University. The collaborators seek to improve the lubricity of weight-bearing prostheses via the fabrication of lipid- attracting polyurethane materials. The specific aim of the research stay by Mr. Williams is the fabrication and characterization of an elastomeric material whose surface represents an interpenetrating polymer network with material capable of attracting boundary lubricants. This proposal brings together research scientists from two countries working in the area of biomaterials/bioengineering. The U. S. graduate student will have the opportunity to become familiar with research techniques, data, equipment, and facilities the Tokyo Medical and Dental University while contributing to the overall research effort. The host laboratory possesses the skills to fabricate polymers, developed for blood- compatibility reasons, suitable for attracting boundary lubricants. The host will learn from Mr. Williams about considerations associated with the alternate application of their materials. Therefore, this proposal fulfills the objectives of the Program in its exchange and transfer of scientific knowledge through an international collaboration. ***

吉尔伯特9502870 该论文强化奖支持密西西比州立大学研究生Philip威廉姆斯在日本进行为期3个月的研究访问，他在杰罗姆A.吉尔伯特。 威廉姆斯先生将在日本逗留三个月，由东京医科和牙科大学的石原和彦教授接待。 合作者试图通过制造吸引脂质的聚氨酯材料来改善承重假体的润滑性。 威廉姆斯先生研究的具体目的是制造和表征一种弹性材料，其表面代表一种互穿聚合物网络，该网络具有能够吸引边界润滑剂的材料。 该提案汇集了来自两个国家在生物材料/生物工程领域工作的研究科学家。联合S.研究生将有机会熟悉东京医科齿科大学的研究技术，数据，设备和设施，同时为整体研究工作做出贡献。主机实验室拥有制造聚合物的技能，出于血液相容性的原因而开发，适用于吸引边界润滑剂。 主持人将向威廉姆斯先生了解与他们的材料的交替应用相关的考虑因素。 因此，该提案实现了该计划通过国际合作交流和转让科学知识的目标。 ***
