EXPANSION RESEARCH CTR: OPIOID, CANCER

描述（由申请人提供）：MSM建议扩大其MRC。这次扩建将使研究所能够提供额外的空间，以容纳神经科学研究所（NI）和临床研究中心（CRC）的研究人员增加的研究工作。男同性恋者的生物医学和临床研究项目解决了不成比例地影响少数民族和其他医疗服务不足人群的疾病。研究所设有中国科学院、心血管研究所、预防研究中心、CRC和空间医学中心。此外，该研究所有两个少数民族机构研究中心（RCMI）项目，一个少数民族生物医学研究支持（MBRS）项目和133个个人研究奖，其中包括19个R01奖。目前的研究经费总额为34,185,688美元，2002财政年度，该研究所从联邦和州来源获得的赠款和合同总额为70,879,499美元。男同性恋者已经制定了一项全面的计划，以解决NI和CRC调查员对额外研究空间的需求。该计划有以下目标和具体目的：1)扩大MSM NI和CRC的研究力度；2)建造一个20,921平方米。MRC增加了一英尺（三层和一个地下室），增加了两个单位的研究组合；3)在增加的范围内增加实验室和专门研究用房；4)在扩建的地下室内创建一个安全区域，用于存储研究对象的医疗记录和存储动物笼子和床上用品的区域；5)提高MSM吸引更多研究项目的能力，包括R01s；6)允许招募更多从事前沿研究的科学家。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The MSM proposes to expand its MRC. This expansion will allow the Institution to provide additional space to accommodate increased research efforts of investigators of the Neuroscience Institute (NI) and the Clinical Research Center (CRC). MSM's biomedical and clinical research programs address diseases that disproportionately affect minority and other medically underserved populations. The Institution houses the NI, Cardiovascular Research Institute, Prevention Research Center, CRC and Space Medicine Center. Additionally, the Institution has two Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI) Programs, a Minority Biomedical Research Support (MBRS) Program and 133 individual research awards, including 19 R01 awards. The current amount of research funds total $34,185,688, and the Institution has a total of $70,879,499 in grants and contracts from federal and state sources for FY 2002. MSM has developed a comprehensive plan to address the need for additional research space for investigators in the NI and the CRC. The plan has the following goal and specific aims: 1) expand research efforts of MSM's NI and CRC; 2) construct a 20,921 sq. ft. addition (three stories and a basement) to the MRC with an outcome of increasing the research portfolios of the two units; 3) provide, within the addition, an increase of laboratory and specialty rooms for research; 4) create, within the basement of the addition, a secure area for storage of medical records of study subjects and an area for the storage of animal cages and bedding; 5) enhance MSM's ability to attract additional research projects, including R01s; and 6) allow for the recruitment of additional scientists engaged in cutting-edge research.
