This award is for the acquisition of a preparative ultracentrifuge for an active undergraduate research-teaching program in the areas of immunology, cell biology, biochemistry, physiology and microbiology. The ultracentrifuge will be used to study the fate of organic molecules and the microbial community associated with metabolism in petroleum-containing hydrothermal sediments, and it will be used in efforts to purify and isolate the proteins associated with arsenic metabolism.This ultracentrifuge will be integral for undergraduate research and educational purposes, and it will be available for use by students in the local five-college consortium. All students at this undergraduate college are required to complete independent research projects, some of which will use the ultracentrifuge. The college has been successful at recruiting women and minorities to the sciences through outreach programs.

该奖项是为了在免疫学、细胞生物学、生物化学、生理学和微生物学领域的一个活跃的本科研究教学项目中获得一个制备性超离心机。该超离心机将用于研究含石油热液沉积物中与代谢相关的有机分子和微生物群落的命运，并将用于纯化和分离与砷代谢相关的蛋白质。这台超离心机将是本科生研究和教育目的不可或缺的一部分，它将供当地五所学院联盟的学生使用。这个本科学院的所有学生都必须完成独立的研究项目，其中一些将使用超离心机。该学院通过外展项目成功地招募了女性和少数族裔科学家。
