Renovation of Cell and Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Laboratories

请拨资金翻新生物科学系的细胞和分子生物学和生物化学实验室。这些实验室为研究人员、学生和合作者提供培训和中心设施。这种现代化将加强各级培训计划。在本科阶段，雷曼学院正努力通过积极参与联邦资助的项目，为聪明的少数族裔学生建立一流的培训项目，这些项目旨在推动他们进入科研事业。改进后的设施应使该系能够吸引更多的这类学生，特别是使少数民族学生继续深造，获得更高的学位。在研究生阶段，生物学的硕士和博士课程，特别是植物科学课程，将受益于最新的设施。随着全国范围内以植物学为导向的院系数量的减少，纽约市立大学的植物科学博士项目与纽约植物园合作，将有能力从事更复杂的实验研究。

Funds are requested to renovate laboratories in cell and molecular biology and biochemistry in the Department of Biological Sciences. These laboratories serve as training and central facilities for researchers, students, and collaborators. This modernization will enhance training programs at all levels. On the undergraduate level, Lehman college is striving to establish first rate training programs for bright minority students through active participation in federally funded programs designed to propel them into scientific research careers. The improved facilities should enable the Department to attract more such students and, especially, to keep minority students in the pipeline leading to advanced degrees. On the graduate level, Master's and Doctoral programs in biology, particularly the plant sciences program, will benefit from up-to-date facilities. With a dwindling group of botanically oriented departments nationwide, CUNY's plant sciences doctoral program, in collaboration with the New York Botanical Garden will have the capacity to engage in more sophisticated experimental research.
