Hoopes9805943The overall plan of this project is to prepare Laura L. Mays Hoopes, after 5 years as Vice President and Dean of the College at Pomona College, to join the Biology Department faculty at Pomona College. She was appointed with tenure in the Biology Department, but as a full time administrator, has had little time to be involved in the teaching and research that a faculty member is expected to carry out. The laboratory of Dr. Judith Campbell at California Institute of Technology is providing a place where Dr. Hoopes can develop a project concerning the DNA2 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, including learning the techniques for studying DNA transactions in yeast. In addition, it will be possible to audit Dr. Campbell's class and attend numerous lectures on state-of-the-art molecular biology. This project is particularly suited for a POWRE award because Dr. Hoopes will be returning to the laboratory and learning new techniques and approaches while working in Dr. Campbell's laboratory. In the six months following Dr. Hoopes' return to Pomona College, she will set up her own laboratory to study the genetics and biochemistry of yeast proteins that act on DNA and teach a new course on The Molecular Genetics of Eukaryotic Regulation.

这个项目的总体计划是为劳拉·L·梅斯·霍普斯做好准备，她在担任波莫纳学院副校长兼院长5年后，加入波莫纳学院生物系。她被任命为生物系的终身教员，但作为一名全职管理人员，她几乎没有时间参与教职员工应该进行的教学和研究。加州理工学院朱迪思·坎贝尔博士的实验室提供了一个地方，胡佩斯博士可以在这里开发一个关于酿酒酵母DNA2基因的项目，包括学习研究酵母DNA交易的技术。此外，还可以旁听坎贝尔博士的课程，并参加许多关于最先进的分子生物学的讲座。这个项目特别适合POWRE奖，因为霍普斯博士将回到实验室，在坎贝尔博士的实验室工作期间学习新的技术和方法。在胡普斯博士回到波莫纳学院后的六个月里，她将建立自己的实验室，研究作用于DNA的酵母蛋白的遗传学和生物化学，并教授一门关于真核生物调控的分子遗传学的新课程。
