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. As Western Kentucky University's Lead Faculty Representative, my role in the INBRE program is primarily administrative. During this budget year I have overseen institutional activities related to the program, I have represented WKU on the KBRIN steering committee and the KBRIN AREA subcommittee, I have promoted and facilitated interactions and exchange of ideas between faculty, postdocs, technicians, and students in our biomedical research community, and I have served as a liaison between the Administrative Core of the INBRE program and the faculty investigators and administrators at WKU. Between May 1, 2009 and April 30, 2010, the INBRE program provided support for one junior faculty investigator (Michael Smith) and three tenured faculty investigators (Sigrid Jacobshagen, Rodney King, and Nancy Rice). All four investigators directed successful and productive research programs involving numerous undergraduate and masters level graduate students as well as 3 full time technicians and 1 post doc. Three of our INBRE investigators are also currently funded by NIH-AREA grants. Three additional junior faculty members from WKU, Di Wu from the Department of Mathematics, Rajalingam Dakshinamurthy from the Department of Chemistry, and Nilesh Sharma from the Department of Biology, participated in the INBRE program during this budget year through our KBRIN AREA initiative. In addition, the Director of our Bioinformatics and Information Science Center, Claire Rinehart, received funding from the INBRE program to allow the BISC to take on increasing responsibility for arranging and facilitating the annual Kentucky/Tennessee Bioinformatics Summit. A record number of six faculty members from Ogden College of Science and Technology at WKU submitted NIH AREA proposals during the current budget year. We are also pleased to report that two INBRE funded students from WKU received national level scholarships/awards during this budget year. Patrick Stewart, and undergraduate research student in Michael Smith's lab was the recipient of a Morris K. Udall Scholarship, and Joseph Chavarria-Smith from Nancy Rice's lab received an NSF Graduate Fellowship to pursue doctoral studies at the University of California-Berkeley.

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 作为西肯塔基州大学的首席教师代表，我在INBRE计划中的角色主要是行政管理。 在这个预算年度，我监督了与该计划有关的机构活动，我代表WKU参加了KBRIN指导委员会和KBRIN区域小组委员会，我促进和促进了教师，博士后，技术人员和学生之间的互动和思想交流，在我们的生物医学研究社区，我曾担任INBRE计划的行政核心与WKU的教师调查员和管理人员之间的联络人。在2009年5月1日至2010年4月30日期间，INBRE计划为一名初级教师调查员（迈克尔·史密斯）和三名终身教师调查员（西格丽德·雅各布斯哈根、罗德尼·金和南希·赖斯）提供了支持。 所有四名研究人员都指导了成功和富有成效的研究项目，涉及众多本科生和硕士研究生以及3名全职技术人员和1名博士后。 我们的三名INBRE研究人员目前也得到了NIH地区赠款的资助。 来自WKU的另外三名初级教师，数学系的吴迪，化学系的Rajalingam Dakshinamurthy和生物系的Nilesh Sharma，在本预算年度通过我们的KBRIN区域计划参加了INBRE计划。 此外，我们的生物信息学和信息科学中心主任Claire Rinehart获得了INBRE计划的资助，使BISC能够承担更多的责任，安排和促进年度肯塔基州/田纳西州生物信息学峰会。 在本预算年度，来自WKU奥格登科学技术学院的6名教员提交了NIH区域提案。 我们还高兴地报告，两名来自WKU的INBRE资助的学生在本预算年度获得了国家级奖学金/奖项。 帕特里克斯图尔特和迈克尔史密斯实验室的本科研究生是莫里斯K。Udall奖学金，以及Nancy Rice实验室的Joseph Chavarria-Smith获得了NSF研究生奖学金，在加州大学伯克利分校攻读博士学位。
