UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA AT OMAHA - BIOLOGY AND COMPUTER SCIENCE

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 UNO-Biology 在过去的一年里，UNO生物学的进展主要是在教师招聘和生物医学科学课程方面。 招聘新教师 一个终身教职的教师队伍已经获得批准，搜索正在进行中。 UNO-Computer Science 内布拉斯加大学奥马哈分校信息科学与技术学院目前有五名INBRE教师：两名INBRE导师（Hesham Ali博士和Zhengxin Chen博士）;两名INBRE研究助理（Kiran Bastola博士和Parvathi Chundi博士）;以及一名INBRE教育助理（Mark Pauley博士）。 今年IS&T学院在生物信息学方面的一个重大发展是主办INBRE生物信息学核心设施。 几位INBRE的同事和导师利用这个机会参观了内布拉斯加州的几个INBRE UGNET校园，并在生物信息学方面进行了演讲和研讨会。因此，在UGNET INBRE成员和生物信息学核心之间开发了几个合作项目。这些项目的初步成果非常有希望。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. UNO-Biology Progress for UNO biology over the last year was primarily in faculty recruiting and in biomedical science curriculum. Recruiting New Faculty One tenure track faculty line was approved and the search is ongoing. UNO-Computer Science The College of Information Science & Technology at the University of Nebraska at Omaha currently has five INBRE faculty members: two INBRE mentors (Dr. Hesham Ali and Dr. Zhengxin Chen); two INBRE research associates (Dr. Kiran Bastola and Dr. Parvathi Chundi); and an INBRE education associate (Dr. Mark Pauley). A major development in the College of IS&T this year regarding bioinformatics was hosting the INBRE Bioinformatics Core Facility. Several INBRE associates and mentors have used this opportunity to visit several Nebraska INBRE UGNET campuses and give talk and workshops in Bioinformatics. As a result, several collaborative projects have been developed among UGNET INBRE associates and the Bioinformatics core. Preliminary results of such projects are very promising.
