项目摘要

This award supports a new, multidisciplinary research training program focused on discovery and characterization of novel enzymes and proteins from diverse microbes. A group of 11 faculty from the Departments of Chemistry and of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology have developed an innovative program that will provide microbiology students a level of chemical and biochemical training not available in traditional programs and, conversely, chemistry and biochemistry students with unprecedented training in microbial biology. A central feature of the program is trainee participation in a "research team" consisting of two faculty members and undergraduate, graduate, postdoctoral students. Following lab rotations in their first year, graduate students will join one of the teams and will have two mentors, one with molecular/biochemical expertise, the other with expertise in microbiology. Postdoctoral trainees will enter these groups directly, and will also have two mentors, a novel arrangement at this training level. In addition, graduate students will have the opportunity to spend up to four months as an intern in an industrial or other non-academic setting. Thus the training is designed to prepare students for diverse opportunities in a variety of employment sectors. ***

该奖项支持一个新的多学科研究培训计划，重点是发现和表征来自不同微生物的新型酶和蛋白质。来自化学和生物化学与分子生物学系的11名教师组成的小组开发了一项创新计划，该计划将为微生物学学生提供传统课程中无法获得的化学和生物化学培训水平，相反，化学和生物化学学生在微生物生物学方面接受了前所未有的培训。该计划的一个中心特点是学员参与由两名教师和本科生，研究生，博士后学生组成的“研究团队”。在第一年的实验室轮换之后，研究生将加入其中一个团队，并将有两名导师，一名具有分子/生物化学专业知识，另一名具有微生物学专业知识。博士后学员将直接进入这些小组，并将有两名导师，这是该培训级别的新安排。此外，研究生将有机会在工业或其他非学术环境中实习长达四个月。因此，培训的目的是为学生在各种就业部门的各种机会做好准备。 ***
