FSML Research Training Groups

摘要0083403A。O.WillowsFSML为星期五港实验室的访问研究人员和学生提供的住房华盛顿大学星期五港实验室(FHL)启动了一项计划，每年邀请最多8个研究小组，每个小组由一名独立研究人员加上她/他的研究生和博士后同事以及5-8名本科生学徒组成，在FHL进行为期3个月的研究。1999年选择了4个这样的小组并邀请他们参加FHL，2000年有6个小组被邀请参加FHL，FHL向教员、研究生研究助理和支助人员(计算机工作人员、海洋和仪器技术员、行政人员)提供实验室和实地设施，并向学生参与者提供津贴。FHL将扩大这一计划，以纳入来自美国各地和国外的团体。FHL计划为研究人员和本科生提供更多、更密集的学年机会，以利用FHL的现场、实验室和住房设施，并将重点放在当前海洋科学方面的重要研究机会上。为了使空间站能够容纳更多的国家/国际参与者，FHL将在该奖项和华盛顿大学提供的财政支持下建造两个新的复式住房单元。FHL位于胡安德富卡和佐治亚州海峡的交界处，位于一个异常生物多样性的地点。FHL支持从分子和细胞生物学到动物行为和群落生态学不断增加的空间维度的研究，并在传统上鼓励知名学者、研究人员和学生在广泛的领域进行创新和交叉的原创研究，包括动物学、海洋学、植物学和基础生物医学科学。

ABSTRACT0083403A. O. WillowsFSML Housing for Visiting Researchers and Students at Friday Harbor LaboratoriesThe Friday Harbor Laboratories (FHL) of the University of Washington has initiated a program to invite up to 8 research groups/year, each group made up of an independent researcher plus her/his graduate and post-doctoral colleagues and 5-8 undergraduate apprentices, to conduct research at FHL for a 3-month period. Four such groups were selected and invited to FHL in 1999, and 6 in 2000, with FHL providing laboratory and field facilities plus full salary to the faculty, graduate research assistants, and support personnel (computer staff, marine and instrumentation technologists, administrative staff), and stipends to the student participants. FHL will expand this program to incorporate groups from around the US and abroad. FHL plans to provide an increased, intense, academic year opportunity for research people and undergraduate apprentices to take advantage of FHL field, laboratory and housing facilities, and to focus upon current, important research opportunities in marine sciences. In order for the station to be able to accommodate more national/international participants, FHL will build two new duplex housing units with financial support provided by this award and the University of Washington.FHL is located at the junction of Juan de Fuca and Georgia Straits, at a site of unusual biological diversity. FHL supports research from molecular and cell biology along a scale of increasing spatial dimensions to animal behavior and community ecology and has traditionally encouraged innovative and cross-cutting original research by eminent scholars, researchers, and students in wide ranging fields, including zoology, oceanography, botany, and basic biomedical sciences.
