Research Impetus in Biomedical Sciences at Clark Atlanta

描述(由申请者提供)：克拉克亚特兰大大学正在进行的MBRS计分计划被称为克拉克亚特兰大大学生物医学计划研究动力的“CAU-RIBS”，其长期目标是增强教师持续的生物医学研究能力，鼓励和增加新教师在开发生物医学研究计划方面的努力；培养一个富有成效的研究环境。拟议中的MBRS SCORE首席调查员研究将在小托马斯·W·科尔(Thomas W.Cole，Jr.)设施中进行。科学技术研究中心。这个18.9万平方英尺的设施为研究人员提供了更大的研究空间，这些研究人员分为生物科学系、化学系、计算机和数学科学系、工程系和物理系的跨学科中心。此外，用于细胞和组织培养、电子和共聚焦显微镜、玻璃吹制、分子生物学和核磁共振的多用户设施非常方便。克拉克·亚特兰大大学的MBRS评分计划强调用跨学科的方法来解决生物医学科学中的研究问题。该提案包括代表三个部门和六个研究中心的十四个次级项目。该大学认为，MBRS评分计划对个人研究人员的研究努力的支持是先验的，为他们提供了机会，使他们有机会增加/增强他们的竞争技能，进入生物医学研究支持的一般(国家)竞争池。这些目标将通过所提供的模范研究和学术氛围来促进。这些目标同样规定本科生和研究生研究助理参与生物医学研究，促进获得研究技能，并分享对生物医学科学的研究激励。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term objectives of the on-going MBRS SCORE Program at Clark Atlanta 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. The facility, in which the proposed research of MBRS SCORE Principal Investigators will be conducted, is the Thomas W. Cole, Jr. Research Center for Science and Technology. 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 and Confocal Microscopy, Glass Blowing, Molecular Biology, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance are readily accessible. The MBRS SCORE Program at Clark Atlanta University emphasizes the interdisciplinary approach to solving research problems in the biomedical sciences. This proposal includes fourteen subprojects representing three departments and six research centers. The University views the MBRS SCORE Program's support of individual investigator's research efforts as, a priori, providing the opportunities for them to increase/augment their competitive skills for entrance into the general (national) pool of competition for biomedical research support. These objectives will be fostered by the exemplary atmosphere of research and scholarship provided. These objects likewise provide for the biomedical research involvement of undergraduate and graduate research assistants promoting the acquisition of research skills and shared incentives for inquiry in the biomedical sciences.
