项目摘要

The University of Idaho will continue the IDeA INBRE Program by sponsoring statewide biomedical research at the BS/MS-granting institutions and two- and four-year colleges. With previous funding an unprecedented Network of research and educational collaborations among ten institutions in Idaho has been built. Successes include a doubling in the number of undergraduates pursing science and health-related careers (~1600 in 2004 to >3000 in 2008) and a >20-fold return on an eight year, ~$1.2 million seed grant investment that resulted in 65 extramural applications and over $26 million in new awards. The renewal proposes to continue/enhance successful programs to catalyze Idaho's transformation to competitiveness through core laboratory facilities, support services, faculty research, student educational and research opportunities, and community outreach. Also, prospects for collaboration across the Western IDeA region and with a CTSA are proposed. "Sustainability" strategies and institutional commitments are in place to carry on the fundamental support for research infrastructure and biomedical research opportunities when the INBRE Program sunsets. The proposal has Five Specific Aims: 1. To strengthen Idaho's biomedical research infrastructure and expertise by building on the established INBRE network with the scientific theme of "Cell Signaling"; 2. To provide support to Idaho faculty, post-doctoral fellows, and graduate students to increase the research base and capacity; 3. To provide research opportunities to Idaho undergraduate students and serve as a pipeline for these students to continue in health research careers; 4. To enhance the science and technology knowledge of Idaho's workforce; and 5. To expand Idaho research opportunities across the Western IDeA Region. The Aims will be met with an Administrative Core and Statewide Steering Committee that bring talented leaders representing all institutions together to guide the Network; an External Advisory Committee with expertise in "Cell Signaling", sustaining productive research programs, and higher education; and a Bioinformatics Core. Opportunities for faculty research at various participation levels will result in numerous intra- and inter-institution collaborations. Research faculty will be held to productivity standards and much emphasis will be placed on mentoring so that the best environment will be created for individuals to meet their goals. Finally, opportunities for students to participate in biomedical research will include undergraduate 2-week immersion labs, 10-week summer fellowships, academic year research, graduate student stipends, post-doctoral fellowships; and activities for K-12 science education.

爱达荷大学将继续实施IDEA INBRE计划，在BS/MS授权机构以及两年制和四年制大学赞助全州范围内的生物医学研究。在之前的资助下，爱达荷州十个机构之间史无前例的研究和教育合作网络已经建立起来。成功的例子包括，追求科学和健康相关职业的本科生数量翻了一番(2004年约1600人，2008年增至3000人)，为期8年的20倍回报，约120万美元的种子基金投资，导致65份校外申请和超过2600万美元的新奖项。更新计划建议继续/加强成功的计划，通过核心实验室设施、支持服务、教师研究、学生教育和研究机会以及社区推广，促进爱达荷州向竞争力的转变。此外，还提出了跨西方IDEA区域和与CTSA合作的前景。“可持续性”战略和机构承诺已经到位，以便在INBRE计划落山时继续为研究基础设施和生物医学研究机会提供基本支持。该提案有五个具体目标：1.通过建立以“细胞信号”为科学主题的INBRE网络，加强爱达荷州的生物医学研究基础设施和专业知识；2.为爱达荷州的教师、博士后研究员和研究生提供支持，以增加研究基础和能力；3.为爱达荷州的本科生提供研究机会，并为这些学生继续从事医疗研究事业提供管道；4.提高爱达荷州劳动力的科学技术知识；5.扩大整个西部IDEA地区的爱达荷州研究机会。这些目标将包括一个行政核心和全州指导委员会，它将代表所有机构的有才华的领导人聚集在一起指导网络；一个在“细胞信号”、持续的生产性研究计划和高等教育方面具有专长的外部咨询委员会；以及一个生物信息学核心。不同参与水平的教员研究机会将导致许多机构内和机构间的合作。研究人员将符合生产力标准，并将非常重视指导，以便为个人创造最佳环境，以实现他们的目标。最后，学生参与生物医学研究的机会将包括为期两周的本科生浸入式实验室、为期10周的暑期奖学金、学年研究、研究生津贴、博士后奖学金；以及K-12科学教育活动。
