An award is made to the University of Southern Mississippi to acquire a state-of-the-art high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer system. The instrument will allow graduate and undergraduate students to gain marketable skills in high-resolution mass spectrometry. Acquisition of the instrument will advance the educational experiences of undergraduate and graduate students by enhancing their ability to conduct research in a broad range of projects of biological and chemical significance. The University of Southern Mississippi will use the instrument for outreach to local high schools to expose students to the various STEM career opportunities and the importance of scientific literacy in society.The research this instrument will support helps advance our understanding of the fundamental science in various biological processes. The instrument will allow the study of these biological processes and the proposing of new hypotheses that can provide insight into the development of bio-inspired materials, parasite-driven food allergies, and the role of peptides in osteoporosis. Other uses of the instrument will include the study of reaction mechanisms in new catalytic processes to aid in the synthesis of important molecules and to develop new molecular sensors to identify chemicals that are toxic to the environment.This project is jointly funded by MRI, the Major Instrumentation Research Program, and the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).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.

向南密西西比大学颁发了奖励，以获取最先进的高分辨率液相色谱质质谱仪系统。该乐器将允许毕业生和本科生获得高分辨率质谱的可销售技能。获取该工具将通过增强其在生物学和化学意义的广泛项目中进行研究的能力来提高本科生和研究生的教育经验。密西西比州南部大学将使用该工具向当地高中推广，以使学生接触各种STEM职业机会和科学素养在社会中的重要性。该研究将支持该工具有助于提高我们对各种生物过程中基本科学的理解。该仪器将允许研究这些生物学过程，并提出新的假设，这些假设可以洞悉生物启发的材料的发展，寄生虫驱动的食物过敏以及肽在骨质疏松症中的作用。该仪器的其他用途将包括研究新的催化过程中的反应机制，以帮助综合重要分子并开发新的分子传感器，以识别对环境有毒的化学物质。该项目由MRI共同资助，由MRI共同资助，主要的仪器研究计划以及通过启发竞争性研究（EPSCOR）的既定计划（EPSCOR）。基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
