Acquisition of Equipment to Enhance Research and Instruction in Biotechnology: Molecular Physiology and Biochemistry Laboratory

威斯康星大学白水分校致力于提高本科生的研究经验。在过去两年中，这一承诺反映在用于改善科学研究实验室设施的大量支出上。该提案要求拨款97,932美元，为该大学的生物技术/分子生理学和生物化学实验室获得新的研究仪器。理大亦已认捐一笔配对基金。提案中详细介绍的生长室、离心机和蛋白质纯化和测量系统目前正在美国的每一个现代生物技术实验室中使用。购买的设备将大大加强教师在生物技术和蛋白质生物化学分析方面的研究和教学。该设备还将为我们的学生提供在科学分析和研究中使用最先进技术的实践经验。这种现代研究仪器所带来的经验和教育将大大提高在该大学接受教育的教师和科学家的生产力。获得这种设备是威斯康星大学白水分校生物和化学系继续发展研究设施的下一个合乎逻辑的步骤。

The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater is committed to enhancing the research experiences of undergraduates. During the past two years this commitment has been reflected in substantial expenditures to improve the science research laboratory facilities. This proposal requests $97,932 in funding to obtain new research instrumentation for the University's Biotechnology/Molecular Physiology and Biochemistry Laboratory. A matching fund has also been pledged by the University. The growth chambers, centrifuges and the protein purification and measurement systems detailed in the proposal are currently being used in every modern biotechnology laboratory in the United States. The equipment that would be purchased will significantly strengthen faculty research and instruction in biotechnology and protein biochemistry analysis. This equipment will also provide our students with hands-on experience with state-of-art technology in scientific analysis and research. The experience and education made possible by this modern research instrumentation will significantly enhance the productivity of teachers and scientists educated at the University. Acquiring this equipment is the next logical step in the continuing development of research facilities in the Departments of Biology and Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.
