IMPROVE EVENTS / COMPLEMENTARY ACTIVITIES

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 加强我们的科学活动并保持互补的机构活动： 基因中心的科学活动(一年一度的国际研讨会、座谈会和研讨会)是我们计划继续进行的非常引人注目和非常成功的项目。这些计划提供多种功能，这些功能对于基因中心作为一流研究计划的发展至关重要。他们通过将顶尖研究人员带到Hunter来让基因中心社区接触一流的研究。它们还用于突出在基因中心进行的研究，并为研究合作提供机会。基因中心务虚会为基因中心研究人员提供了一个重要的机会，让他们参与关于专业和组织发展的讨论和研讨会，并在有重点的环境中分享科学信息。我们计划复制和加强我们在2001年5月进行的一次成功务虚会。我们还将继续支持与机构资金相辅相成的举措。这些举措包括基因中心研究生研究支持计划，该计划招募优秀的美国和少数民族研究生研究人员进入基因中心实验室，以及本科生研究暑期计划(SPUR)，该计划在为少数族裔本科生从事生物医学职业生涯做准备方面发挥了重要作用。基因中心涉及宣传和推广以及招聘教员的重大外展活动也得到这些机构资金的支持。基因中心和JustGarciaHill网站也为基因中心的外联活动提供必要的支持，并将获得少量的机构运作资金。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. To enhance our scientific events and maintain complementary institutional activities: The scientific events of the Gene Center (annual international symposia, colloquia, and seminars) are highly visible and extremely successful programs that we propose to continue. These programs serve multiple functions that are crucial to the development of the Gene Center as a first class research program. They serve to expose the Gene Center community to first class research by bringing top researchers to Hunter. They also serve to highlight the research conducted at the Gene Center and provide opportunities for research collaboration. The Gene Center retreat provides an important opportunity for Gene Center researchers to participate in discussions and workshops on professional and organizational development, and to share scientific information in a focused setting. We plan to replicate and enhance a successful retreat we conducted in May 2001. We will also continue to support complementary initiatives with institutional funds. These initiatives include the Gene Center Graduate Research Support program which recruits outstanding U.S. and Minority graduate researchers into Gene Center labs and the Summer Program for Undergraduate Research (SPUR), a program that plays a significant role in preparing minority undergraduate students for careers in biomedicine. Significant outreach activities of the Gene Center that involve publicity and promotion as well as recruitment of faculty are also supported by these institutional funds. The Gene Center and the JustGarciaHill websites also provide essential support to the outreach activities of the Gene Center and will receive modest institutional funds for operation.
