MBRS PROGRAM AT SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY - BATON ROUGE

我们在南方大学MBRS计划的总体目标是 继续改善和提高生物医学研究能力， 我们的机构及其研究教职员工和学生。 通过所有 在拟议的项目中，我们打算增加少数民族的人数， 进入生物医学研究的主流作为一种职业;提高 主要研究者的专业知识和能力，使他们能够 进入主流生物医学研究领域， 申请这一领域的联邦赠款 我们的计划还 涉及密集的研究培训和提高一些 我们的研究生和本科生谁将成为熟练工 未来的生物医学研究科学家 我们的大多数项目 课程是跨学科的。 这些项目主要涉及 尽管存在污染问题和对人类健康的影响， 它们涉及生物化学，无机化学，寄生虫学， 真菌学、纺织生物化学、生物有机化学和毒理学，以及 社会服务 大多数调查人员将使用普通的 工具和类似的，但修改的技术和想法，以解决他们的 研究问题。 我们打算把不同的研究问题联系起来， 项目的整体方案问题，并看到每个研究项目 不是作为一个单独的实体，而是作为相关项目的一个方面。 我们打算 以补充我们的研究工作与每周研讨会介绍。 生物医学研究中的仪器和技术将教授给我们的 学生 我们打算继续鼓励非多边审查机构的参与 教师在我们的计划，试图提高他们的研究 在生物医学研究中提高技能或重新装备自己。 我们认为这将有助于 增加进入生物医学领域的训练有素的人员数量 研究，如果以适当的方式处理。 这将提高我们的 更大的成功和实现MBRS目标和目的的机会。

The overall objectives of our MBRS Program at Southern University are to continue to improve and increase the biomedical research capabilities of our institution and its research faculty members and students. Through all of the proposed projects we intend to increase the number of minorities going into the mainstream of biomedical research as a career; improve the expertise and capabilities of the principal investigators to enable them to get into mainstream biomedical research and become very competitive in applying for federal grants in this area of research. Our program also involves intensive research training and improved participation of a number of our graduate and undergraduate students who will become journeymen biomedical research scientists of tomorrow. Most of the projects in our program are interdisciplinary in nature. The projects deal essentially with the problems of pollutions and the impacts on human health though, they traverse the areas of biochemistry, inorganic chemistry, parasitology, mycology, textile biochemistry, bio-organic chemistry and toxicology, and social services. Most of the investigators will be using common instruments and similar but modified techniques and ideas in solving their research problems. We intend to relate the research problems of different projects to the overall program problems and to see each research project not as a separate entity but as an aspect of related projects. We intend to complement our research efforts with weekly seminar presentation. Instrumentation and techniques in biomedical research will be taught to our students. We intend to continue to encourage participation of non-MBRs faculty members in our program in an attempt to improve their research skill or retool themselves in biomedical research. We think this will help increase the number of trained individuals going into the biomedical research, if it is handled in a proper manner. This will enhance our chances of greater success and achievement of MBRS goals and objectives.
