DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): LeMoyne-Owen College (LOC) is an HBCU located in the heart of Memphis, Tennessee. The student population consists of about 99.9% African-American students of which approximately 40% are male and 60% female students. The goal of this project is to establish a biomedical research environment at LOC campus. To accomplish this goal two activities are identified: (1) to provide grantsmanship training to faculty, and (2) to facilitate biomedical research and training on campus. The activities to successfully achieve these objectives are: (1) to designate the Chair of the Division as an Extramural Associate (EA) to familiarize himself with the opportunities offered by the NIH, (2) to empower and provide facilities to the EA to establish a Sponsored Science Research Office (SSRO). The SSRO will: (1) be responsible for providing information to the faculty for biomedical research opportunities applications, (2) arranging training sessions for the faculty to write fundable research projects, (3) establishing and monitoring the biomedical research and training on campus, (4) arranging biomedical seminars, and (5) establishing and strengthening research collaboration with other institutions. LOC is nominating Dr. Muhammad Iqbal Shafi, Chair of the Division of Natural and Mathematical Sciences for the position of EA for the ten-week FRESP at NIH.
