MBRS SCORE at CSU Dominguez Hills

描述（由申请人提供）：在加州州立大学，多明格斯山MBRS评分计划的目标是增加科学教师在校园生物医学研究的参与。 我们的计划是发展一个具有公认的研究项目的生物医学研究教师核心，他们可以与行政部门合作，积极影响我们机构研究的现在和未来发展。 作为我们的SCORE计划的结果，可衡量的改进已经增加了三个新的教师到我们的计划，并随之建立了三个新的生物医学研究实验室，两个已经建立的实验室的进一步发展，参与教师的生产力提高，并扩大了学生与教师在这些项目上合作的机会。 此MBRS SCORE补充申请的目的是请求设备和技术支持，以帮助我们目前的SCORE PI在其研究计划中取得成功。 我们需要一台奥林巴斯BX 61视频显微镜来支持Laura J. Robles博士和Monica Gorman博士的研究，一台Beowulf系统来支持Kenneth Ganezer博士和Hernan Martinez博士的项目，一台非接触式分析仪，Ganezer博士的传感器和配件，以及一名计算机技术人员来满足Ganezer博士和Martinez博士的高级计算需求。 收到这些设备和技术支持将使我们更接近于实现我们的SCORE目标，即增加科学教师在校园研究项目中的参与。 所要求的设备将使我们的SCORE调查人员能够为他们的研究带来以前无法获得的新维度。 所要求的项目将使我们更接近于将生物医学研究文化注入CSUDH科学部门的目标，从而使研究成为学生，教师和机构发展的重要组成部分。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective the MBRS SCORE Program at California State University, Dominguez Hills is to increase the participation of science faculty in on-campus biomedical research. Our plan is to develop a nucleus of biomedical research faculty with recognized research programs who can work with the administration to positively influence present and future development of research at our institution. Measurable improvements as a consequence of our SCORE Program have been the addition of three new faculty to our program and the consequent establishment of three new biomedical research laboratories, the further development of two already established laboratories, increased productivity of the faculty involved and expanded opportunities for students to work with faculty on these projects. The objective of this MBRS SCORE supplemental application is to request equipment and technical support to assist our present SCORE PIs in achieving success in their research programs. We are requesting an Olympus BX61 video microscope to support the research of Dr. Laura J. Robles and Dr. Monica Gorman, a Beowulf system to support the projects of Dr. Kenneth Ganezer and Dr. Hernan Martinez, a non-contact analyzer, transducers and accessories for Dr. Ganezer and a computer technician to meet the advanced computing needs of Drs. Ganezer and Martinez. Receipt of this equipment and technical support will bring us closer to meeting our SCORE objective of increased participation of science faculty in on-campus research projects. The requested equipment will allow our SCORE investigators to bring new dimensions to their research that were previously unavailable. The items requested will move us closer to our goal of infusion of a biomedical research culture into the science departments at CSUDH thereby making research an important component of student, faculty and institutional development.
