INTERDISCIPLINARY BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE DEVELOPMENT

拟议的少数民族生物医学研究支助的目标 （MBRS）计划在奥尔巴尼州立学院是为了进一步提高 生物和化学专业的生物医学研究培训， 为大学毕业后的培训做好准备的程度 与健康有关的纪律。 通过以下途径提供资源： MBRS计划，奥尔巴尼州立大学将寻求：（1）提供 教师参与生物医学科学的机会 （2）鼓励和扩大科学研究的氛围 通过少数民族学生参与研究调查， （3）提高教师的科研能力; (4)通过研究改进科学教学 通过MBRS计划提供的设施;（5）贡献 与解决健康问题有关的信息; 以及（6）增加我们的教师人数， 由于资金的投入， 可用于“释放时间”。 该研究计划包括三个主要方面。 研究人员与生物医学相关的项目，在不同的 科学学科：（1）“有机硅生物医学研究” 将由史密斯博士进行，（2）“牛磺酸的影响， 钙补充饮食对大鼠高血压的影响”将进行研究 Lockley博士和（3）“研究血脑屏障在 下丘脑弓状核的水平”将由Dr。 堡 八名本科生将受益于参与 这个节目，每年。

The objective of proposed Minority Biomedical Research Support (MBRS) program at Albany State College is to further enhance the biomedical research training of biology and chemistry majors to the level of preparedness for post-baccalaureate training in a health related discipline. With resources made available through the MBRS program, Albany State Collage will seek to: (1) provide opportunities for faculty to participate in biomedical scientific research; (2) encourage and expand an atmosphere of scientific inquiry through minority student involvement in research at the undergraduate level; (3) upgrade faculty research capabilities; (4) improve instruction in the sciences by using research facilities made available through the MBRS Program; (5) contribute information pertinent to the solution of health-related problems; and (6) increase the number of our faculty, to include persons having certain desired specialties, as a result of funds made available for "released time. The proposed research program includes three principal investigators with biomedically relevant projects in different scientific disciplines: (1) "Organosilicon biomedical Research" will be conducted by Dr. Smith, (2) " The Effect of Taurine and Calcium Supplemented Diets on Hypertension in Rats" will be studied by Dr. Lockley and (3) "Studies on the Blood-Brain Barrier at the Level of the Hypothalamic Arcuate Nucleus" will be explored by Dr. Fort. Eight undergraduate students will benefit from participation in this program, annually.
