The award from the Chemistry Division supports an Undergraduate Research Centers (URC) planning grant. The PI is H. David Husic assisted by co-PI Diane W. Husic of Moravian College. This planning grant will support activities of the Consortium for Research Opportunities in the Plant Sciences (CROPS) to develop an URC. The consortium members are chemists, biochemists and a molecular biologist at Lafayette College, Moravian College, Colgate University, Haveford College, Juniata College, Marist College and Lehigh University. The award will support work towards the following goals: 1) development of consortial relationships; 2) fostering interdisciplinary collaborative faculty/student research; 3) provide research opportunities in the area of plant sciences; 4) develop programmatic elements that will illustrate the ties between chemistry and the plant sciences that can impact both research and classroom teaching. Programmatic elements to be considered and designed include a seminar series, curricular materials, workshops, laboratory resource guides, an electronic newsletter, a website focusing on chemical and molecular aspects of plant sciences. The consortium will foster research opportunities for students at institutions that currently have limited infrastructure to support research, including a regional community college, Northampton Community College.

化学部的奖项支持本科研究中心（URC）规划补助金。 PI是H。大卫胡希奇协助共同PI黛安W。摩拉维亚学院的胡希奇。 该规划补助金将支持植物科学研究机会联盟（CROPS）开发URC的活动。 该联盟成员是拉斐特学院、摩拉维亚学院、科尔盖特大学、哈弗福德学院、朱尼亚塔学院、马里斯特学院和利哈伊大学的化学家、生物化学家和分子生物学家。 该奖项将支持实现以下目标的工作：1）财团关系的发展; 2）促进跨学科的合作教师/学生研究; 3）提供植物科学领域的研究机会; 4）开发将说明化学和植物科学之间的联系的方案元素，可以影响研究和课堂教学。 需要考虑和设计的方案要素包括一系列研讨会、课程材料、讲习班、实验室资源指南、电子通讯、侧重于植物科学化学和分子方面的网站。 该联盟将为目前支持研究的基础设施有限的机构的学生提供研究机会，包括一所地区社区学院，北安普顿社区学院。
