RESEARCH SUPPORT SERVICES

这个子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和调查员(PI)可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可能会出现在其他CRISE条目中。列出的机构是针对中心的，而不一定是针对调查员的机构。由RCMI计划赞助的研究支持服务是分子生物学研究实验室(MBRL)、细胞培养研究实验室(CCRL)和科学成像中心(SIC)。我们建议对现有的计算机设施进行增强，使其能够处理计算生物学/生物信息学计算和数据分析。RCMI对这些设施的支持将包括(除设备外)RCMI设施经理(MBRL、SIC和CCRL)、MBRL协调员和研究技术员的100%工资和附带福利，以及计算机设施经理工资的20%。其他支持将包括每个设施购买一次性用品和气体的最低供应津贴、设备采购(按照中心科学家的建议)、设备服务合同以及不在服务合同范围内的仪器设备维修津贴。提议在下一个供资周期继续支持上文强调的三个机制(医疗保险、医疗保险和CCRL)。这些设施为加强大学的生物医学研究基础设施和提高皇家医学研究院附属科学家的研究生产力作出了重大贡献，因为它们提供了个人研究人员实验室所没有的设备。这些设施还为科学家、工作人员和学生提供了最先进的方法培训。还建议RCMI支持加强计算机设施，使感兴趣的科学家能够将其用于计算生物学/生物信息学研究。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The research support services sponsored by the RCMI program are the Molecular Biology Research Laboratory (MBRL), the Cell Culture Research Laboratory (CCRL) and the Scientific Imaging Center (SIC). We propose to add enhancements to an existing computer facility to make it capable of handling computational biology/bioinformatics calculations and data analysis. The RCMI support for these facilities will include (in addition to the equipment) 100% of the salary and fringe benefits for the RCMI Facilities Manager (for the MBRL, SIC, and CCRL), the MBRL Coordinator and Research Technician, and 20% of the salary for the manager of the computer facility. Other support will include a minimal supply allowance for each facility to purchase disposable supplies and gases, equipment purchases (as recommended by Center scientists), service contracts on equipment and an equipment repair allowance for service of instrumentation that is not under service contract. It is proposed that RCMI continue to support the three facilities highlighted above (MBRL, SIC and CCRL) for the next funding cycle. The facilities have contributed significantly to the enhancement of the biomedical research infrastructure at the University and to the research productivity of RCMI-affiliated scientists by providing equipment not available in an individual investigator's laboratory. These facilities have also provided training in state-of-the-art methodologies for scientists, staff and students. It is also proposed that RCMI support the enhancement of the computer facility to allow interested scientists to use it for computational biology/bioinformatics research.
