This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Microbial biology for FY2004. The fellowship supports training and research on the basic biology of protozoan, microalgal, fungal, archaeal, bacterial and viral species that are not generally considered to be model organisms. Further, it provides opportunities for recent doctoral recipients to obtain additional training in microbial biology, to gain research experience under the sponsorship of established scientists, and to broaden their scientific horizons beyond the research experiences during the undergraduate and graduate training. These fellowships are further designed to assist new scientists to direct their research efforts across traditional disciplinary lines and to avail themselves of unique research resources, sites, and facilities, including foreign locations.The research and training plan is entitled "Gene regulatory networks in the halophillic archaeon Halobacterium." This project begins the ambitious goal of deciphering the entire gene regulatory network in Halobacterium by conducting a three-tiered analysis of transcriptional regulator Bat and its influence on the interconnected light and oxygen dependent metabolic processes. This system-level inquiry offers training in genome/proteome-level science and assists in developing an understanding of the complex gene regulatory mechanisms that control the response of microbial physiology to external stimuli.

这一行动为2004财政年度的NSF微生物生物学博士后奖学金提供资金。 该研究金支持关于原生动物、微藻、真菌、古菌、细菌和病毒物种的基础生物学的培训和研究，这些物种通常不被视为模式生物。此外，它为最近的博士生获得微生物生物学的额外培训提供了机会，在既定科学家的赞助下获得研究经验，并拓宽他们的科学视野，超越本科和研究生培训期间的研究经验。 这些奖学金还旨在帮助新科学家指导他们的研究工作跨越传统学科，并利用独特的研究资源、地点和设施，包括外国地点。“这个项目开始了一个雄心勃勃的目标，即通过对转录调节因子Bat及其对相互关联的光和氧依赖性代谢过程的影响进行三层分析，破译盐杆菌中的整个基因调控网络。这种系统级的调查提供了基因组/蛋白质组水平的科学培训，并有助于发展控制微生物生理学对外部刺激的反应的复杂基因调控机制的理解。
