Idaho INBRE Program

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目是爱达荷州IDEA INBRE的延续。它是研究密集型机构的合作努力，主要与本科院校（PUI）和社区学院赞助研究和科学教育机会。10所爱达荷州高等教育机构将参加。所要求的资金将提供下一步，以建立PUI调查员的深度和临界质量，并维持已经开始的文化变革。提出了五个具体目标： 1.建立在已建立的爱达荷州研究网络的基础上，以“细胞信号传导”为科学重点 并加强参与的爱达荷州机构的生物医学研究专业知识和基础设施。 2.通过为参与爱达荷州机构的教师、博士后研究员和研究生提供支持，建立和提高研究基础和能力。 3.为本科生提供研究机会，并作为这些学生继续在IDEA州内从事健康研究职业的“管道”。 4.提高爱达荷州劳动力的科学技术知识。 5.在西部IDEA地区提供研究机会。 该项目包括四个核心：行政，生物信息学，研究指导，培训，劳动力发展和多样性。此外，发展研究项目计划概述了广泛的资格计划，一个良好的广告机会，一个竞争性的选择过程，明确的期望，和仔细的指导。该过程将选择最有前途的教师，并通过确保适当的研究基础设施，科学指导和网络社区，为他们的成功和学生的成功提供一个环境。为了帮助指导我们的进展，科学，财务和合规监督将到位。我们有一个经验丰富的爱达荷州INBRE行政小组，一个高素质的外部咨询委员会，一个全州范围的指导委员会，以及精心策划的总结性和形成性评估，包括外部到ldaho审查。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This project is a continuation of the IDeA INBRE in Idaho. It is a collaborative effort of research-intensive institutions to sponsor research and science educational opportunities with primarily undergraduate institutions (PUIs) and community colleges. Ten Idaho institutions of higher education will participate. The requested funding will provide the next step to build the depth and critical mass of investigators at the PUI and to maintain the change in culture that has been initiated. Five Specific Aims are proposed: 1. To build on the established Idaho research Network with the scientific focus of 'Cell Signaling' and strengthen the participating Idaho institutions' biomedical research expertise and infrastructure. 2. To build and increase the research base and capacity by providing support to faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students at the participating Idaho institutions. 3. To provide research opportunities for undergraduate students and serve as a "pipeline" for these students to continue in health research careers within IDeA states. 4. To enhance science and technology knowledge of Idaho's workforce. 5. To provide research opportunities across the Western IDeA region. The project includes four Cores: Administrative, Bioinformatics, Research Mentoring, and Training, Workforce Development and Diversity. Also, a Developmental Research Project Program is outlined that plans for broad eligibility, a well-advertised opportunity, a competitive selection process, clear expectations, and careful guidance. The process will select the most promising faculty and provide an environment for their success and the success of their students by assuring appropriate research infrastructure, scientific mentoring, and a Network community. To help guide our progress, scientific, financial, and compliance oversight will be in place. We have an experienced Idaho INBRE administrative group, a highly qualified external advisory committee, a statewide steering committee, and well-planned summative and formative evaluations that include external-to-ldaho review.
