This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Maine has targeted biotechnology as a key future growth sector, and SMCC's biotechnology program is designed to support this growth, however SMCC does not have the laboratory facilities to teach students about many of the advanced techniques in genetics and other areas of biotechnology. INBRE A&R support will renovate SMCC's Microbiology Lab to meet the needs of current molecular techniques and increased course offerings. INBRE will also up-grade some laboratory equipment and supplies. INBRE will give students the opportunity to attend short-courses at MDIBL, and to do internships at MDIBL and other advanced laboratories in Maine. SMCC students go on to work locally in biomedical research institutions as well as to four-year colleges. Having them graduate better prepared to follow career paths in biomedicine will benefit the students, their future employers, and Maine's overall scientific capacity.

这个子项目是利用资源的许多研究子项目之一。 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。对子项目的主要支持 子项目的首席调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括美国国立卫生研究院的其他来源。为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示该子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 不是由NCRR赠款提供给次级项目或次级项目工作人员的直接资金。 缅因州已将生物技术作为未来的关键增长领域，SMCC的生物技术计划旨在支持这一增长，但SMCC没有实验室设施向学生传授遗传学和其他生物技术领域的许多先进技术。INBRE A&R支持将翻新SMCC的微生物学实验室，以满足当前分子技术和增加课程的需求。INBRE还将升级一些实验室设备和用品。INBRE将让学生有机会参加MDIBL的短期课程，并在缅因州的MDIBL和其他高级实验室实习。SMCC的学生继续在当地的生物医学研究机构和四年制大学工作。让他们毕业后更好地准备好在生物医学领域走上职业道路，这将使学生、他们未来的雇主以及缅因州的整体科学能力受益。
