NSF Minority Graduate Student Travel Award

这一行动资助少数民族研究生旅行奖。 这些奖项允许少数民族研究生谁计划申请NSF少数民族博士后研究奖学金，使未来的赞助科学家访问之前提交奖学金申请。 奥斯汀女士将于2003年秋季访问犹他州大学丹尼斯·迪林博士的实验室。 她的研究兴趣是新陈代谢和药理学。 这次访问将使她能够制定一个博士后研究计划，通过研究植物与动物的相互作用，为她的研究增加生态学视角。

This action funds a Minority Graduate Student Travel Award. These awards permit minority graduate students who plan to apply for an NSF Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowship to make visits to prospective sponsoring scientists prior to submitting a fellowship application. Ms. Austin will visit the laboratory of Dr. Denise Dearing at the University of Utah the fall of 2003. Her research interests are in metabolism and pharmacology. This visit will permit her to formulate a program for postdoctoral research that adds an ecological perspective to her research by examining plant-animal interactions.
