SUPPORT FOR STUDY OF BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES

虽然这一提案中包括了几个新项目， MBRS计划，我们的MBRS计划的所有主要重点， Prairie View A & M University没有变化。 程序继续 旨在培养生物医学科学家， 相关的研究和提高学术在这所大学。 的 已故的J. E.贝瑞，我们的前MBRS主任超过十年， 在这个项目中设定一个卓越的基调，并将保持下去。 这些项目包括：（1）十氯酮引起的变化 在钙缺乏和钙充足大鼠的钙代谢中， 科塔帕湾Chetty，P.T.; (2)硫酸化木聚糖的作用机理 关于人血浆的凝固，Vasant Doctor，P.I.;（三） 种族差异对生育方式的心理社会相关性 重量，克莱德麦克丹尼尔，PI; Benjamin Berry，Co-P.I.;（四） 污泥中镉和铅向植物和大鼠的转移， 私家侦探理查德托马斯Seab Smith，Verlie Tisdale和亚瑟 Mangaroo Co-P.I.（5）分离、纯化和 网柄藻琥珀酸脱氢酶的性质研究 discoideum，亚瑟C.华盛顿。P.I. 除了研究活动外，每周一次的研讨会将在大草原上举行。 A & M大学是为这个MBRS计划而设计的。 同学们， 和教师将介绍他们的研究和讨论研究 问题，并寻求可能的解决方案。 新的研讨会计划是 旨在加强和鼓励研究和学术努力， 在大学的教师。 因此，智力刺激 是这些努力的直接结果。

Although several new projects are included in this proposal to the MBRS program, the over-all major emphasis of our MBRS program at Prairie View A&M University has not changed. The program continues to be designed to produce biomedical scientists and foster health related research and improve academics at this University. The late Dr. J. E. Berry, our former MBRS Director for over ten years, set a tone of excellence in this program and it will be maintained. The projects included here are: (1) Chlorodecone Induced Changes in Calcium Metabolism in Calcium Deficient and Sufficient Rats, Kothapa N. Chetty, P.T.; (2) Mechanism of Action of Sulfated Xylans on the Coagulation of Human Plasma, Vasant Doctor, P.I.; (3) Psycho-social Correlates of Ethnic Differences on how birth Weights, Clyde McDaniel, P.I.; Benjamin Berry, Co-P.I.; (4) Transfer of Sludge-Borne Cadmium and Lead to Plants and to Rats, Richard Thomas, P.I., Seab Smith, Verlie Tisdale and Arthur Mangaroo Co-P.I.'s; (5) Isolation, Purification and Characterization of Succinic Dehydrogenase from Dictyostelium discoideum, Arthur C. Washington. P.I. In addition to research activities, a weekly seminar a Prairie View A&M University has been designed for this MBRS Program. Students, and Faculty will present their research and discuss research problems and seek possible solutions. The new seminar program is designed to enhance and encourage research and academic efforts and faculty at the University. As a results, intellectual stimulation is a direct out-put of these efforts.
