The National Science Foundation has provided support for five educational workshops, to be held before the start of the Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) 2010 annual meeting. The workshops will provide an opportunity for scientists, core facility managers, students and postdoctoral fellows interested in life science technologies to receive hands-on training and learn about state-of-the- art biotechnology. The funding will allow twenty-five Educational Awards, scholarships for undergraduates, graduate students, postdoctoral fellow, and core personnel to attend the educational workshop of their choice. The workshops include: 1) Introduction to Proteomics Platforms: Applications for Qualitative and Quantitative Studies; 2) Targeted Proteomics; 3) RNA Demystified for Life Science Core Laboratories; 4) Next Generation DNA Sequencing: Platform-Independent Analysis You Can Use; and 5) Managing Performance and Productivity in the Laboratory Today. The education offered by the workshops would enable the adoption and use of new technologies to answer advanced questions in life science-based research, supporting new, enthusiastic researchers in the use of both established and cutting-edge technologies. Advertisement of the fellowships through the ABRF Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) program would allow reaching out to students and core personnel from underrepresented groups and encourage their participation in the Workshops. Broadening the participation of individuals from underrepresented groups in core research would enhance the capabilities of these individuals, as well as allow them to bring these skills back to their home institutions.

美国国家科学基金会为五个教育研讨会提供了支持，这些研讨会将在生物分子资源设施协会（ABRF）2010年年会开始之前举行。这些讲习班将为对生命科学技术感兴趣的科学家、核心设施管理人员、学生和博士后研究员提供一个机会，使他们能够接受实践培训，了解最先进的生物技术。这笔资金将允许25个教育奖，本科生，研究生，博士后研究员和核心人员参加他们选择的教育研讨会的奖学金。这些讲习班包括：1）蛋白质组学平台简介：定性和定量研究应用; 2）靶向蛋白质组学; 3）生命科学核心实验室揭开RNA神秘面纱; 4）下一代DNA测序：您可以使用的平台独立分析; 5）管理当今实验室的性能和生产力。 讲习班提供的教育将使人们能够采用和使用新技术来回答基于生命科学的研究中的高级问题，支持新的、充满热情的研究人员使用既有技术和尖端技术。通过ABRF少数民族获得研究职业（MARC）计划的奖学金广告将允许接触到代表性不足的群体的学生和核心人员，并鼓励他们参加研讨会。扩大代表性不足群体的个人参与核心研究的范围，将提高这些人的能力，并使他们能够将这些技能带回自己的机构。
