DESCRIPTION (Adapted From Application): This application is for renewal of a 7-year-old program called the Old Westbury Neuroscience International Program, or OWNIP. The program will be directed by Dr. George B. Stefano. The purpose of OWNIP is twofold: to increase the neuroscience potential of SUNY/College of Old Westbury and its principal investigators and to encourage minority science majors to become aware of and interested in biomedical research careers. These goals will be achieved by working with international scientists who share joint research interests. This collaboration will give students a global perspective regarding science and cultures while simultaneously enriching their academic experience. The College at Old Westbury has faculty that are interested in neuroscience in general and neuroimmunology in particular. It has a multiethnic faculty and a high percentage of minority students who choose science as a major. The faculty have special interests in molecular and cellular neuroimmunology related to National Institute of Drug Abuse and National Institute of Mental Health interests. The OWNIP activities will include international travel for both faculty and students, international visits by foreign scientists and experience in foreign laboratories. Each year, 10 undergraduates will spend 10 weeks at the foreign sites. There are four foreign sites, one each in Italy and France, and two in China. The Italian site in at the University of Modena, in the Neurobiology Section of the Department of Animal Biology, under the direction of Dr. Dario Sonetti. Two of the OWNIP faculty have visited and lectured at this University. Further, Dr. Stefano has an ongoing collaborative research project there, and at least one former MIRT student (Federico Casares) has participated in this joint research project. The research at this site focuses on morphine as an endogenous neuro- and immune-active signal molecule. The French site is at the University of Lille, with Dr. M. Salzet, whose research focuses on comparison of sequences of neuropeptides isolated from vertebrates and invertebrates, with special interest currently on the renin-angiotensin system. The first site in China is at the Beijing Medical College, under Dr. Shao Guang Fan in the Department of Physiology, which he chairs. His research interests focus on the effects of opioid peptides on rejection on organ transplantation, i.e. opiate and transplantation immunity. The second Chinese site is at the Institute Medica of the Shanghai Research Institute, under Dr. Xiao-Yu Li. Dr. Stefano has visited this facility, and found it to be modern and well equipped. The research focus here is in the field of opioid immune regulation.

描述（根据应用程序改编）：此应用程序用于续订 7年历史的计划称为旧韦斯特伯里神经科学国际计划， 或ownip。该计划将由George B. Stefano博士执导。目的 owerip是双重的：增加纽约州立大学/旧金山的神经科学潜力 韦斯特伯里及其主要调查员，并鼓励少数民族科学 对生物医学研究职业的了解和感兴趣的专业。这些 与共享联合的国际科学家合作将实现目标 研究兴趣。这项合作将使学生有一个全球视角 关于科学和文化，同时丰富他们的学术 经验。 旧韦斯特伯里的学院拥有对神经科学感兴趣的教师 尤其是一般和神经免疫学。它有一个多民族教师和 选择科学的少数族裔学生的比例很高。教师 在与 国家药物滥用研究所和国家心理健康研究所 利益。 OWNIP活动将包括两者的国际旅行 教师和学生，外国科学家的国际访问和经验 在外国实验室。 每年，有10名本科生将在外国现场呆10周。那里 是四个外国遗址，一个在意大利和法国，两个在中国。 摩德纳大学的意大利遗址，在神经生物学部分 动物生物学系在达里奥·索内蒂（Dario Sonetti）博士的指导下。二 Ownip教师在这所大学访问和演讲。此外，博士 Stefano在那里有一个正在进行的合作研究项目，至少一个 前MIRT学生（Federico Casares）参加了这项联合研究 项目。该站点的研究重点是吗啡作为内源性神经 - 和免疫活性信号分子。 法国遗址位于里尔大学，M。Salzet博士，他的 研究重点是比较从中分离的神经肽序列 脊椎动物和无脊椎动物，目前对 肾素 - 血管紧张素系统。 中国的第一个地点是在Shao guang博士的领导下在北京医学院 他主持的生理学系的粉丝。他的研究兴趣 专注于阿片类肽对排斥对器官移植的影响， 即鸦片和移植免疫。 第二个中国网站是在上海研究所 研究所，下刘李博士。 Stefano博士访问了此设施， 发现它是现代且设备齐全的。这里的研究重点是 阿片类免疫调节领域。
