MBRS RISE at Cal State Dominguez

描述（由申请人提供）：科罗拉多州立大学多明格斯山分校MBRS RISE项目的目标是为学生、教师和机构提供发展生物医学研究的机会，这是其他机构或系统范围内的项目所无法提供的，从而创造一个环境，为在生物医学研究中被忽视的少数群体提供更多培训机会。25名学生参加我们的RISE项目（20名本科生和5名研究生）。所有5名研究生和14名本科生与CSUDH教师一起工作，其余6名本科生在海港-加州大学洛杉矶分校医学中心研究与教育研究所工作。由于之前的MBRS补充，我们重新装修了一个400平方英尺的。自然科学与数学大楼的ft实验室成为MBRS学生研究核心实验室。在这个实验室里，我们放置了所有RISE学生和教师都可以使用的设备。本增刊的目的是为MBRS学生研究核心实验室购买额外设备获得资金。我们希望购买一个BIO-RAD VersaDoc 5000系统，一个Beckman Coulter DU 640（生命科学包）紫外/可见分光光度计和一个Beckman Coulter Allegra 25R冷藏台式离心机。我们的目的是为我们的学生和教师带来最先进的设备，以帮助他们进行研究活动，并激发他们对生物医学研究的进一步兴趣。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the MBRS RISE Program at CSU Dominguez Hills is to provide developmental biomedical research opportunities for students, faculty and the institution, which are not available through other institutional or system-wide programs, thus creating an environment that provides expanded opportunities for training underrepresented minorities in biomedical research. Twenty-five students participate in our RISE Program (20 undergraduates and 5 graduates). All five graduate and 14 undergraduate students work with CSUDH faculty and the remaining 6 undergraduates work at the Harbor-UCLA Medical Center Research and Education Institute. As the result of a previous MBRS supplement, we renovated a 400 sq. ft laboratory in the Natural Science and Mathematics building to become the MBRS Student Research Core Laboratory. In this laboratory we have placed equipment available to all RISE students and faculty. The objective of the present supplement is to obtain funds for the purchase of additional equipment for the MBRS Student Research Core Laboratory. We wish to purchase a BIO-RAD VersaDoc 5000 system, a Beckman Coulter DU 640 (Life Science Package) UV/Vis specrophotometer and a Beckman Coulter Allegra 25R refrigerated tabletop centrifuge. Our intent is to bring state-of-the-art equipment to our students and faculty to help them in their research activities and to stimulate their further interest in biomedical research.
