Biological collections play an essential role in life science research. They support fundamental scientific studies at the molecular, cellular, organismal and community level, as well as applied research to improve health, food security, and energy production. The United States Culture Collection Network (USCCN) was established in 2012, engaging the culture collection community to facilitate the safe and responsible utilization of microbial resources through meetings and webinars, publications and position papers, and site visits to learn about collection practices. This award will establish the USCCN 2.0, a new Research Coordination Network (RCN) that will expand the scope and reach of the USCCN. The USCCN 2.0 will increase the reach of scientists across multiple disciplines to work toward addressing challenges and needs shared by all microbial collection managers and users. USCCN 2.0 will expand the network and identify additional collections through an online registry accessible by the broader scientific community. These data will increase the breadth and utility of living plant microbial collections for multi-disciplinary scientific projects. USCCN 2.0 will encourage participation of underrepresented communities and will promote a diverse, globally competitive STEM workforce, increase partnerships between industry, academia, and other entities, and enhance infrastructure for research and education.The specific aims of USCCN 2.0 are to increase participation in the network; enhance links with other collection registries and repositories; and to cultivate the long-term sustainability of participating collections and the USCCN. The work on each of these aims will be underpinned by complementing and synergizing activities with other projects, networks, organizations, and societies globally. A top priority of the RCN is a collection registry to provide the necessary foundation to accomplish the network’s activities, and to ensure inclusivity of small research collections. Through a professionally administered process, a more extensive and diverse community of U.S. collections will be identified and brought into the network. Additional priorities include increasing participation and coordination among U.S. and international biological collections organizations; establishing linkages between current and future collection registries, repositories, and other forms of collected data; and building direct ties to stakeholders – those who develop or utilize microbes, microbial collections, and other microbial resources for research or industrial purposes – to build a network of networks.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

生物收藏在生命科学研究中起着至关重要的作用。它们支持分子，细胞，有机体和社区水平的基础科学研究，以及应用研究以改善健康，粮食安全和能源生产。美国文化收集网络（USCCN）成立于2012年，吸引了文化收集社区，以通过会议和网络研讨会，出版物和职位论文以及现场访问来促进对微生物资源的安全和负责任的利用，以了解收集实践。该奖项将建立USCCN 2.0，这是一个新的研究协调网络（RCN），该网络将扩大USCCN的范围和范围。 USCCN 2.0将增加多个学科的科学家的影响力，以应对所有微生物收集经理和用户分享的挑战和需求。 USCCN 2.0将扩展网络，并通过更广泛的科学界可以访问的在线注册表来确定其他收藏。这些数据将增加用于多学科科学项目的活植物微生物收集的广度和效用。 USCCN 2.0将鼓励代表性不足的社区参与，并将促进潜水员，全球竞争性的STEM劳动力，增加行业，学术界和其他实体之间的伙伴关系，并增强研究和教育的基础设施。USCCN 2.0的具体目标是增加网络参与网络的参与；增强与其他收集注册表和存储库的联系；并培养参与馆藏和USCCN的长期可持续性。这些目标的工作将通过与其他项目，网络，组织和社会在全球的其他项目，网络，组织和社会进行汇编和协同作用的基础。 RCN的重中之重是收集注册表，旨在为完成网络的活动提供必要的基础，并确保小型研究收集的包容性。通过专业管理的过程，将确定一个更广泛的美国收藏社区，并将其带入网络。其他优先事项包括在美国和国际生物收集组织中增加参与和协调；在当前和未来的收集注册表，存储库和其他形式的收集数据之间建立联系；以及与利益相关者建立直接联系 - 那些开发或利用微生物，微生物收集和其他微生物资源来建立网络网络的人。这奖反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估审查审查标准来通过评估来获得的支持。
