RESEARCH IMPETUS IN THE BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES AT CLARK ATL

克拉克大学正在进行的MBRS项目被称为克拉克亚特兰大大学生物医学科学研究动力项目的“cau - rib”，其长期目标是提高正在进行的教师生物医学研究能力，鼓励和增加新教师在开发生物医学研究项目方面的努力；营造富有成效的研究环境。最近，由于科学技术研究中心（RCST）的建成和使用，这种示范性的研究和学术氛围得到了加强。这个189,000平方英尺的设施为研究人员提供了更多的研究空间，分为跨学科中心，来自生物科学系，化学系，计算机和数学科学系，工程系和物理系。此外，细胞和组织培养、电子显微镜、玻璃吹制和核磁共振的多用户设施也很容易进入。克拉克亚特兰大大学的MBRS计划强调跨学科的方法来解决生物医学科学的研究问题。该提案包括代表四个部门和六个研究中心的16个子项目（15个主要研究人员和一个试点项目）。大学认为MBRS计划对个人研究者的研究工作的支持是先验的，为他们提供机会，提高他们的竞争技能，以进入生物医学研究支持的一般竞争池。这些目标将通过提供研究和奖学金的模范氛围来促进，在这种氛围中，本科生和研究生研究助理的生物医学研究可以促进研究技能的获得，并分享生物医学科学探究的激励。

The long-term objectives of the on-going MBRS Program at Clark University dubbed, "CAU-RIBS" for Clark Atlanta University Research Impetus in the Biomedical Sciences Program, are to enhance on-going faculty biomedical research capabilities, encourage and augment efforts of new faculty in developing biomedical research programs; fostering a productive research environment. This exemplary atmosphere of research ans scholarship has recently been augmented by the completion and occupancy of the Research Center for Science and Technology (RCST). This 189,000 square feet facility offers increased research space for investigators, categorized into interdisciplinary Centers, from the Departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Computer and Mathematical Sciences, Engineering and Physics. Additionally, multi- user facilities for Cell and Tissue Culture, Electron Microscopy, Glass Blowing, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance are readily accessible. The MBRS Program at Clark Atlanta University emphasizes the interdisciplinary approach to solving research problems in the biomedical sciences. This proposal includes sixteen subprojects (fifteen Principal Investigators and one Pilot Project) representing four departments and six research centers. The University views the MBRS Program's support of individual investigator's research efforts as, A PRIORI, providing the opportunities for them to increase their competitive skills for entrance into the general pool of competition for biomedical research support. These objectives will be fostered by the exemplary atmosphere of research and scholarship provided wherein the biomedical research involvement of undergraduate and graduate research assistants can promote the acquisition of research skills and share the incentives for inquiry in the biomedical sciences.
