Alabama State University (ASU) proposes to establish a Center for Nanobiotechnology Research (CNBR) with the goal of strengthening and enhancing interdisciplinary and inter-institutional collaborative research in the area of nanotechnology and biotechnology. In addition, the center will play a pivotal role in providing training and research resources to the new Ph.D. program in Environmental Microbiology. The center will facilitate four research themes: 1) Structural studies of RSV at nanoscale and viral inhibition by nanoparticles, 2) Carbon nanotube attached with ssDNA as nanosensor for detection of Salmonella typhimurium, 3) The development of nanobiomaterials for drug delivery, and 4) delivery of nanoparticle encapsuled anti-Chlamydial peptides in an animal model. These projects will be carried out in collaboration with the University of Louisville, University of South Florida, University of Alabama at Birmingham and Tulane National Primate Research Center. These collaborations will also provide an opportunity for minority students to pursue Ph.D. degrees at collaborating institutions. Other aspects of the center will include an international scientist exchange program, travel to scientific meetings, release-time to subproject PIs, summer research at collaborating institutions and an annual science symposium.

亚拉巴马州立大学（ASU）提议建立一个纳米生物技术研究中心（CNBR），其目标是加强和提高纳米技术和生物技术领域的跨学科和机构间合作研究。此外，该中心将在为新博士提供培训和研究资源方面发挥关键作用。在环境微生物学中。该中心将促进四个研究主题：1）RSV在纳米级的结构研究和纳米颗粒的病毒抑制，2）碳纳米管与ssDNA连接作为检测鼠伤寒沙门氏菌的纳米传感器，3）用于药物递送的纳米生物材料的开发，以及4）在动物模型中递送纳米颗粒包裹的抗衣原体肽。这些项目将与路易斯维尔大学、南佛罗里达大学、伯明翰的亚拉巴马大学和杜兰国家灵长类动物研究中心合作进行。这些合作也将为少数民族学生提供攻读博士学位的机会。合作机构的学位。该中心的其他方面将包括一个国际科学家交流计划，前往科学会议，释放时间的子项目PI，夏季研究在合作机构和年度科学研讨会。
