95-12638 Malcinski This award provides renewed support for the IU Axlotyl Colony, a collection of axlotyls at the Indiana University first established over 50 years ago. The axlotyl is of particular interest in understanding aspects of animal development and certain mechanisms of sensory perception. Certain mutant lines established by the Colony, such as those lacking pigmentation, permit experimental approaches that would otherwise be difficult. Each year the Colony provides approximately 80,000 axlotyls at various developmental stages for use in basic biological research and for education in primary and secondary schools and in colleges. The Colony also acts as a resource for information about a variety of methods and techniques for use of axlotyls in research, and publishes an annual newsletter that provides information about use of axlotyls in education as well as research. ***

95-12638马尔辛斯基该奖项为印第安纳大学50多年前首次建立的印第安纳大学的Axlotyl Colony提供了新的支持。轴突在理解动物发育的各个方面和某些感官知觉机制方面特别感兴趣。由群体建立的某些突变系，例如那些缺乏色素的突变系，允许进行实验方法，否则这些方法将是困难的。每年，殖民地在不同的发育阶段提供大约80,000个轴轴，用于基础生物学研究以及中小学和大学的教育。该协会还提供有关在研究中使用紫杉醇的各种方法和技术的信息资源，并出版一份年度通讯，提供有关在教育和研究中使用紫杉醇的信息。***
