DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposal is built around our Phase I Bioinformatics Core. This core will continue to concentrate on providing infrastructural bridges, both personnel and equipment to our goal of providing an effective and efficient communication Grid for the State of Louisiana, with the ultimate goal of linking this Grid to those being developed in sister states and regions, including Arkansas, Mississippi, and Kentucky, and to other Grids. The research theme that provides support for our team of primarily undergraduate institutions is that of environmental toxicology. This theme allows for research projects that span the chemistry of environmental contaminants, the molecular responses of organisms exposed to toxicants, and the relationship of exposure to several important diseases and aging. Participating partner institutions are Southern University in New Orleans, Southern University (Baton Rouge), University of Louisiana at Monroe, and Louisiana State University, Louisiana State University Health Science Center (New Orleans). This was the original partnership team in our BRIN. Louisiana State ;University at Shreveport, a primarily undergraduate institution in the northern part of the state has been added to the network. Although the BRIN, provided representation across the State in its original partners, the addition of LSUS provides better geographical spread and potential linkages to our sister institutions around the state. All institutions of higher education in the State will be included in this project through our outreach activities. Activities will range from faculty research participation with partner institutions, student research opportunities, even to the promotion of adjunct status with partners to more fully implement the network around the State.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案是围绕我们的第一阶段生物信息学核心。该核心将继续集中精力提供基础设施桥梁，包括人员和设备，以实现我们为路易斯安那州提供有效且高效的通信电网的目标，最终目标是将该电网与姐妹州和地区正在开发的电网连接起来，包括阿肯色州、密西西比和肯塔基州以及其他电网。为我们的主要本科院校团队提供支持的研究主题是环境毒理学。这个主题允许跨越环境污染物的化学，暴露于毒物的生物体的分子反应，以及暴露于几种重要疾病和衰老的关系的研究项目。参与的伙伴机构有新奥尔良南方大学、南方大学（巴吞鲁日）、路易斯安那大学门罗分校和路易斯安那州立大学、路易斯安那州立大学健康科学中心（新奥尔良）。这是我们BRIN中最初的合作伙伴团队。路易斯安那州;什里夫波特大学，该州北方的一个主要的本科院校已被添加到网络中。虽然BRIN在其最初的合作伙伴中提供了全州的代表性，但LSUS的加入提供了更好的地理分布和与全州姐妹机构的潜在联系。通过我们的外联活动，该州所有高等教育机构都将被纳入这一项目。活动范围将从教师研究参与与合作伙伴机构，学生的研究机会，甚至与合作伙伴的附属地位，以更充分地实施周围的国家网络的促进。
