DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal from the University of Connecticut seeks funding to support re-opening a previous faculty search in the broad area of NMR-based structural biology that was suspended to to economic conditions. The faculty recruit will be expected to establish a world-class research program on challenging and importan problems in tructural biology. The University of Connecticut provides a highly collegial and supportive environment for structural biology to forter the professional development of the recruit. The University of Connecticut Health Center maintains outstanding resources to support the faculty recruit, including the Gregory P. Mullen NMR Structural Biology Facility and the MMSB Biophysical Core Facility. The NMR Facility operates NMR spectrometers a 400, 500,600, and 800 MHz, with state-of-the-art cryogenic probes on the 500,600, and 800 MHz instruments. The Biophysical Core Facility operates a circular dichroism spectrapolarimeter, a multi-angle light scattering instrument, differential scanning and isothermal titration calorimeters, a vapor pressure osmometer, and a MALDl-TOF mass spetcrometer. The recruit will join the UConn Partnership for Excellence in Structural Biology, which fosters collaborative research and teaching in structural biology across two campuses and 5 colleges.

描述（由申请人提供）：康涅狄格大学的这一提议寻求资金，以支持在基于NMR的结构生物学广泛领域重新开放以前的教师搜索，该搜索被暂停为经济状况。预计该教师的新兵将建立有关构造生物学中具有挑战性和重要问题的世界一流研究计划。康涅狄格大学为结构生物学提供了高度合作和支持的环境，以促进新兵的专业发展。康涅狄格大学卫生中心（University of Connecticut Health Center）拥有出色的资源，以支持教师新兵，包括Gregory P. Mullen NMR结构生物学设施和MMSB生物物理核心设施。 NMR设施的NMR光谱仪A 400、500,600和800 MHz，最先进的低温探针在500,600和800 MHz仪器上。生物物理核心设施具有圆形二色性光谱仪，多角度光散射仪器，差分扫描和等温滴定热量表，蒸气压机度计和MALDL-TOF-TOF质量弹头。这位新兵将加入UConn结构生物学卓越伙伴关系，该合作伙伴关系促进了两个校园和5所大学的结构生物学的合作研究和教学。
