9720634 Shreeve EPSCoR involves Idaho's three universities - University of Idaho (UI), Idaho State University (ISU), and Boise State University (BSU) - as well as all other two and four year institutions in the state working in the research areas of molecular ecology and environmental science and engineering. Project funds will be directed to the research areas under this broad umbrella which have been carefully nurtured and which will continue to be strengthened. A portion of EPSCoR funds will be allocated on a competitive basis to junior faculty who direct research in these focus areas of importance to Idaho and its research universities. Funds will also be used specifically to increase the long-term productivity of Idaho's young research faculty by improving the research tools and human talent available to them for furthering their ongoing investigations. In some instances, this improvement will be achieved by providing startup funds to our newest, tenure track faculty for research program initiation. In addition, multiuser instruments that will improve the research capabilities of several investigators or of multidisciplinary faculty research teams will be purchased. A significant portion of the available funds will be reserved to support individual researchers including faculty development positions at Idaho State University and Boise State University that will allow newer, less experienced faculty to gain sufficient research expertise to increase their confidence and their ability to compete. A least one new joint (UI/ISU) professorship at the Idaho Falls campus will be created. A competitive seed grant program to stimulate new initiatives by beginning investigators and undergraduate research experience programs to provide top quality Idaho undergraduates the opportunity to work with university researchers will also be conducted as will programs for high quality undergraduate women and minority students.

9720634 Shreeve EPSCoR涉及爱达荷州的三所大学-爱达荷大学（UI）、爱达荷州立大学（ISU）和博伊西州立大学(BSU) -以及该州从事分子生态学和环境科学与工程研究领域的所有其他两年制和四年制机构。项目资金将用于这一广泛保护伞下的研究领域，这些领域已得到精心培育并将继续得到加强。EPSCoR资金的一部分将在竞争的基础上分配给指导对爱达荷州及其研究型大学重要的这些重点领域的研究的初级教师。资金还将专门用于提高爱达荷州年轻研究人员的长期生产力，通过改进研究工具和人力资源，使他们能够进一步开展正在进行的研究。在某些情况下，这一改进将通过向我们最新的终身教职员工提供启动资金来实现。此外，还将购买多用户仪器，以提高若干研究人员或多学科教员研究小组的研究能力。可用资金的很大一部分将保留给个人研究人员，包括爱达荷州立大学和博伊西州立大学的教师发展职位，这将允许较新的，经验不足的教师获得足够的研究专业知识，以增加他们的信心和竞争能力。将在爱达荷福尔斯校区设立至少一个新的联合教授职位。一项竞争性的种子基金计划，旨在通过初级研究人员和本科生研究经验计划来刺激新的倡议，为爱达荷州的高质量本科生提供与大学研究人员一起工作的机会，同时也将为高质量的本科女性和少数民族学生提供项目。
