Berner 9805808 The activities to be undertaken in this Research Enhancement POWRE project include learning new methods at an external site, perfecting the new methods at the home institution, applying the new methods to the PI's research program, and forging a new collaborative relationship with colleagues at another institution. Academic year 1998-99 is the sabbatical leave year of the P1. The PI will spend one semester in the lab. The purpose of the trip Is two-fold: to learn the new lab methods which will broaden the PI's research' program and to solidify a developing collaborative relationship. The PI will spend the second semester perfecting the techniques at the home institution with the animal models commonly used in the PI's lab. Upon working out the methods in the home lab, the PI will begin applying the new methods to the ongoing research project of the P1. The PI will involve undergraduate in this part of the project and the 'proposal includes summer salary for two students for the summer, This proposal is particularly suited to a POWRE award. It makes possible significant professional advancement of the PI by broadening the scope of the research project through learning new methods, and it increases leadership opportunities by providing funding for undergraduate research. Completion of these activities would not be possible without funding from the NSF which provides necessary salaries and supplies, and the ability to dedicate time to these activities.

Berner 9805808 该研究增强 POWRE 项目将开展的活动包括在外部地点学习新方法、在国内机构完善新方法、将新方法应用到 PI 的研究项目中，以及与另一个机构的同事建立新的合作关系。 1998-99 学年是 P1 的休假年。 PI 将在实验室度过一个学期。这次旅行的目的有两个：学习新的实验室方法，这将扩大 PI 的研究项目并巩固正在发展的合作关系。 PI 将在第二学期利用 PI 实验室常用的动物模型完善其所在机构的技术。在家庭实验室制定出方法后，PI 将开始将新方法应用到 P1 正在进行的研究项目中。 PI 将让本科生参与该项目的这一部分，并且“提案包括两名学生暑期工资”，该提案特别适合 POWRE 奖。它通过学习新方法扩大研究项目的范围，使 PI 的专业进步成为可能，并通过为本科生研究提供资金来增加领导机会。如果没有 NSF 的资助（提供必要的工资和用品）以及投入时间进行这些活动的能力，这些活动就不可能完成。
