Biological Sciences (61) Emory and Henry College is creating a new curriculum in Cell Biology and an updated curriculum for Molecular Biology as part of an integrated and investigative cellular and molecular biology emphasis. The new laboratory equipment is being used by undergraduates in a series of laboratory experiments, investigative in nature. The project is also expanding faculty expertise and exposure to innovative pedagogy, thus furthering their professional development. The analytical instrumentation is being used to: 1) Establish a Cell Biology course and revitalize the Molecular Biology curriculum to provide direct access for students to modern investigative methodologies essential to understanding of basic biological concepts, 2) Provide students with the curriculum necessary to be competitive both in the workplace and in graduate and professional schools, and 3) Ensure a high quality of education to disadvantaged and traditionally underrepresented students. The project adapts and implements the successful project of Dr. Amelia Ahern Rindell (DUE 9851477) of Portland State and materials in the NSF Workshop on Curricular Developments in the Analytical Sciences.

生物科学 (61) 埃默里和亨利学院正在创建细胞生物学新课程和分子生物学更新课程，作为综合和研究性细胞和分子生物学重点的一部分。本科生正在使用新的实验室设备进行一系列研究性的实验室实验。该项目还扩大了教师的专业知识和创新教学法的接触，从而促进他们的专业发展。分析仪器用于：1) 建立细胞生物学课程并重振分子生物学课程，为学生提供直接接触现代研究方法的机会，这对理解基本生物学概念至关重要，2) 为学生提供在工作场所、研究生院和专业学校保持竞争力所需的课程，以及 3) 确保弱势群体和传统上代表性不足的学生获得高质量的教育。该项目改编并实施了波特兰州立大学 Amelia Ahern Rindell 博士（DUE 9851477）的成功项目以及 NSF 分析科学课程开发研讨会中的材料。
