DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funds are requested to equip animal research space in the University of California Davis Genome and Biomedical Sciences Facility (GBSF). The addition of fixed cage racks will transform this space into a stateof- the-art rodent barrier facility to serve all of campus and will provide critical facilities needed to underpin our internationally respected Mouse Biology Program. Completion of this project will allow us to fulfill our longterm objective to use rodents as a platform to attack critical questions in biomedical sciences in multiple research programs. As a recipient of a "Center of Excellence in Nutritional Genomics" and, therefore, a designated institution of emerging excellence, these funds will accelerate our growth in research in genomics in the broadest sense of the word. With its modern animal research space, the GBSF will allow us to combine forces of researchers in basic genomics and proteomics, molecular medicine, biomedical engineering, bioinformatics, and biostatistics. These cross-disciplinary programs will bring together established investigators, new investigators, research fellows and visiting scientists who use rodents as animal models in a centrally located research.

描述（由申请人提供）：要求资金在加利福尼亚大学戴维斯分校基因组和生物医学科学设施（GBSF）中为动物研究空间配置。固定的笼架的增加将把这个空间转变为一个啮齿动物屏障设施的状态，以服务于所有校园，并将提供为我们国际尊重的小鼠生物学计划提供所需的关键设施。该项目的完成将使我们能够实现我们的长期目标，将啮齿动物用作攻击多个研究计划生物医学科学的关键问题的平台。作为“营养基因组学卓越中心”的接受者，因此，这些资金将在最广泛的词义上加速我们在基因组学方面的研究增长。 GBSF凭借其现代动物研究领域，将使我们能够将研究人员的力量结合在一起，从而在基本基因组学和蛋白质组学，分子医学，生物医学工程，生物信息学和生物统计学中结合使用。这些跨学科计划将汇集成熟的研究人员，新研究人员，研究研究员以及来访的科学家，这些科学家在一项位于中心的研究中使用啮齿动物作为动物模型。
