Core--Research development

内森老龄研究中心有四个目的：(1)提高老龄基础生物学研究的质量；(2)促进老龄研究的协调；(3)创造区域/国家资源；(4)为老龄研究的教师成长创造环境。研究发展核心为教师成长创造的环境也将提高老化基础生物学的研究质量。研究发展核心为教师成长创造的环境也将提高老化基础生物学的研究质量。研究发展的一个主要重点将是促进核心提供的技术的整合，以便在选定的模型系统中开展细胞衰老和死亡的细胞和分子基础研究。利用这些核心的研究项目将能够发现与衰老相关的基因，定位它们的基因产物，描述它们的表型并确定基因产物的功能。这种集成将是由一系列的活动:(1)严格选择申请试点项目的支持,(2)严格的选择教师为有限的工资支持批准试点项目,(3)正式程序指导青年教师和其他新th4e生物学衰老的高级教师(4)创建一个研讨会在生物衰老和(5)安装一个程序的嘉宾和撤退预防衰老的生物学上的发现。试点项目支持申请的选择和有限工资支持教师的选择将由高级教师组成的委员会进行。所有这些活动都旨在创造一个互动、合议但严谨的环境，在这种环境中，知识的发酵将导致招募新的教师来研究衰老的细胞和分子生物学，并为他们提供优秀的设施，以支持优秀教师进行高质量的研究。

The proposed Nathan Shock Center on Aging as a four-fold purpose: (1) To enhance the quality of research in the basic biology of aging, (2) to facilitate coordination of research on aging, (3) to create a regional/national resource and (4) to create an environment for faculty growth in aging research. The creation of an environment for faculty growth by the Research Development Core also will enhance the quality of research in the basic biology of aging. The creation of an environment for faculty growth by the Research Development Core also will enhance the quality of research in the basic biology of aging. A major focus of the Research Development will be to promote the integration of the technologies offered by the Core so to develop research in the cellular and molecular basis of cell senescence and death in selected model systems. Research programs utilizing the Cores will be able to discover aging- related genes, localize their gene products, describe their phenotype and determine the function of the gene products. This integration will be created by a series of activities: (1) Rigorous selection of applications for the support of Pilot Projects, (2) rigorous selection of faculty with approved Pilot Projects for limited salary support, (3) a formal program of mentoring junior faculty and others new to th4e biology of aging by senior faculty (4) creation of a seminar course in the biology of aging and (5) mounting a program of guest speakers and retreats for prevention of findings on the biology of aging. The selection of applications for support of Pilot Projects and the selection of faculty for limited salary support will be by a committee of senior faculty. All these activities are designed to create an interactive and collegial but rigorous environment in which the intellectual ferment would lead to recruitment of new faculty to research in the cell and molecular biology of aging and provide them with outstanding facilities to support the production of high quality research by outstanding faculty.
