MOLECULAR BIOLOGY CORE: HIV/AIDS: PUERTO RICAN, HUMAN GENETICS, ASTHMA, NEUROSCI

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。该项目的具体目标是：1)通过为基础和临床研究人员提供分子生物学设施和专家技术服务，支持少数民族健康研究中的生物医学研究。预计这些设施将鼓励开发新项目，并促进在该领域没有丰富经验的研究人员应用分子生物学工具。获得分子生物学设备和技术将帮助波多黎各的研究人员走在科学的前沿，使他们能够进行顶级的分子和临床研究。此外，一个多用户，集中的设施将减少重复的基本设备在我们学校的数量。2)通过讲习班和研讨会为需要将分子生物学技术纳入其研究的研究人员提供培训。分子生物学计划将大力参与自动循环dna测序和其他分子生物学技术的研究人员和技术人员的培训。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The specific aims of this program are as follow: 1)To support biomedical research in minority health studies by providing molecular biology facilities and expert technical services to basic and clinical researchers. These facilities are expected to encourage the development of new projects and to facilitate the application of molecular biology tools by investigators who do not have extensive experience in this area. Access to molecular biology equipment and techniques will help investigators in Puerto Rico to be at the forefront of science by allowing them to conduct top-of-the-line molecular and clinical research. In addition, a multi-user, centralized facility will decrease the number of duplicated basic equipment within our school. 2)To provide training through workshops and seminars to investigators that need to incorporate molecular biology techniques into their research. The Molecular Biology Program will be strongly involved in the training of investigators and technical staff in automated cycle-DNA sequencing and other molecular biology techniques.
