RESEARCH IMPETUS IN THE BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES AT CLARK ATL

克拉克大学正在进行的MBRS项目的长期目标被称为克拉克亚特兰大大学生物医学科学项目研究动力的“CAU-RIBS”，是为了提高正在进行的教师生物医学研究能力，鼓励和加强新教师的努力在开发生物医学研究项目方面;培养富有成效的研究环境。最近，科学技术研究中心（RCST）的落成和入住增强了这种模范的研究和奖学金氛围。这个189，000平方英尺的设施为研究人员提供了更多的研究空间，分为跨学科中心，来自生物科学，化学，计算机和数学科学，工程和物理部门。此外，多用户设施的细胞和组织培养，电子显微镜，玻璃吹制，核磁共振是很容易访问。克拉克亚特兰大大学的MBRS计划强调跨学科的方法来解决生物医学科学的研究问题。该提案包括16个子项目（15名首席研究员和1个试点项目），代表4个部门和6个研究中心。该大学认为MBRS计划对个人研究者的研究工作的支持是一个优先事项，为他们提供机会，以提高他们的竞争技能，进入生物医学研究支持竞争的一般池。这些目标将通过提供研究和奖学金的示范性氛围来促进，其中本科生和研究生研究助理的生物医学研究参与可以促进研究技能的获得，并分享生物医学科学探究的激励。

The long-term objectives of the on-going MBRS Program at Clark University dubbed, "CAU-RIBS" for Clark Atlanta University Research Impetus in the Biomedical Sciences Program, are to enhance on-going faculty biomedical research capabilities, encourage and augment efforts of new faculty in developing biomedical research programs; fostering a productive research environment. This exemplary atmosphere of research ans scholarship has recently been augmented by the completion and occupancy of the Research Center for Science and Technology (RCST). This 189,000 square feet facility offers increased research space for investigators, categorized into interdisciplinary Centers, from the Departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Computer and Mathematical Sciences, Engineering and Physics. Additionally, multi- user facilities for Cell and Tissue Culture, Electron Microscopy, Glass Blowing, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance are readily accessible. The MBRS Program at Clark Atlanta University emphasizes the interdisciplinary approach to solving research problems in the biomedical sciences. This proposal includes sixteen subprojects (fifteen Principal Investigators and one Pilot Project) representing four departments and six research centers. The University views the MBRS Program's support of individual investigator's research efforts as, A PRIORI, providing the opportunities for them to increase their competitive skills for entrance into the general pool of competition for biomedical research support. These objectives will be fostered by the exemplary atmosphere of research and scholarship provided wherein the biomedical research involvement of undergraduate and graduate research assistants can promote the acquisition of research skills and share the incentives for inquiry in the biomedical sciences.
