Research Training Group on Plant Signal Transduction Using Arabidopsis thaliana.

该奖项为高等植物信号转导分子分析的多学科培训研究项目提供了额外的支持。1992年，美国能源部、美国国家科学基金会和美国农业部联合发起了一项竞赛，并颁发了一个奖项。该计划代表了12个教员的共同努力，他们使用遗传，电生理，生化和生物物理方法来阐明拟南芥信号转导初始事件的机制。提供本科生、研究生和博士后水平的培训。该计划的创建导致了几门新课程和一个新的每周研究会议，所有学员和教师都应该参加。该项目帮助受训者在植物生物学的研究生涯中采取更加跨学科和综合的方法。

9602222 Sussman This award provides additional support for a multidisciplinary training research training program focused on molecular analysis of signal transduction in higher plants. The effort was initiated with an award through a competition sponsored jointly by DOE, NSF, and USDA in 1992. The program represents a joint effort of twelve faculty that use genetic, electrophysiological, biochemical and biophysical approaches to elucidate the mechanisms of the initial events in signal transduction in Arabidopsis thaliana. Training is provided at the undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral levels. Creation of the program has resulted in several new courses and a new, weekly research meeting that all trainees and faculty are expected to attend. The program has helped its trainees take a more interdisciplinary and integrated approach towards a research career in plant biology.
