9724544 Griffin Sacred Heart University is an independent, liberal arts institution with 3500 undergraduate and 1500 graduate students. The school does NOT offer any Ph.D. programs. The proposal requests $94,500 to purchase equipment that will be used to investigate the biology of hypothalamic neurons and their response to chemical and environmental pressures. Among the equipment required are computers, signal amplifiers, oscilloscopes, data recorders, microtomes, etc. Until recently the University has provided little opportunity for undergraduate research. There is a current high level commitment to improve these opportunities as illustrated by the construction and renovation of new biology and chemistry laboratories, new science faculty, and by the appreciable matching funds to this proposal. One goal of this proposal is to improve the recruiting and retention of talented undergraduates, and to improve the quality of the undergraduate training. ***

9724544 格里芬圣心大学是一所独立的文科院校，拥有 3500 名本科生和 1500 名研究生。 学校不提供任何博士学位。程序。 该提案要求拨款 94,500 美元购买设备，用于研究下丘脑神经元的生物学及其对化学和环境压力的反应。 所需的设备包括计算机、信号放大器、示波器、数据记录仪、切片机等。直到最近，该大学还很少为本科生研究提供机会。 当前高层致力于改善这些机会，新的生物和化学实验室的建设和翻新、新的科学教师以及与该提案的可观的配套资金都表明了这一点。 该提案的目标之一是改善本科人才的招聘和保留，并提高本科生的培养质量。 ***
