SHARING IN THE DISCOVERY STEM CELL LEARNING LAB

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 让公众了解威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的干细胞和再生医学研究。 这是威斯康星大学麦迪逊干细胞和再生医学中心、生物技术中心、灵长类中心及其在威斯康星州的推广伙伴之间的一项新的合作努力。通过这一努力，我们正在生物技术中心为公众建立一个干细胞学习实验室，为从4年级到12年级的学生，到大学生，一直到校友、退休人员和其他“终身学习者”的每个人提供服务。参观者将能够使用真实的实验室技术在实验室工作，但由于生物安全问题，将直接使用模拟细胞和培养基来工作。他们将能够间接处理真实细胞；也就是说，当这些材料由接受过生物安全方案培训的项目教育人员处理时，他们将能够在显微镜下观察真实的猴子、小鼠和人类细胞和组织。小组还将能够访问灵长类中心，并了解其在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校干细胞历史和当前研究中的重要作用。 实验室设置工作将在2008年初进行；第一批人员将于2008年4月开始参观。 通过这个项目，我们还将安排威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的干细胞和再生医学演讲者向众多观众介绍这一广阔的科学领域。这些观众包括4-H团体、威斯康星州校友会团体、儿童学院和2008年的许多其他团体。 这个项目依赖于WNPRC公共信息官员的时间和资源，他也是干细胞和再生医学中心的大学关系专家。 该项目使用了联邦政府批准的从詹姆斯·汤姆森实验室获得的人类胚胎干细胞系。

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. To inform and educate the public about stem cell and regenerative medicine research at the UW-Madison. This is a new collaborative effort among the UW-Madison Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Center, Biotech Center, Primate Center and their outreach partners throughout Wisconsin. Through this effort, we are setting up a stem cell learning lab for the public at the Biotechnology Center, to serve everyone from students grades 4-12, through college students, and all the way to alumi, retirees and other "lifelong learners." Visitors will be able to work in a lab using real lab techniques but will work directly with simulated cells and media due to biosafety issues. They will be able to indirectly work with real cells; that is, they will be able to observe real monkey, mouse and human cells and tissues under the microscope when these materialas are handled by project educators trained in biosafety protocols. Groups will also be able to visit the Primate Center and learn about its important role in UW-Madison stem cell history and current research. Lab setup is occuring early in 2008; the first groups will visit beginning in April 2008. Through this project, we are also scheduling UW-Madison stem cell and regenerative medicine speakers to present to numerous audiences about this broad scientific field. These audiences include 4-H groups, Wisconsin Alumni Association groups, College for Kids and many other groups in 2008. This project relies on the time and resources of the WNPRC Public Information Officer, who is also a university relations specialist for the Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Center. This project uses federally approved human embryonic stem cell lines obtained from James Thomson's lab.
