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. The Centralized Research Core Facility is in its third year of providing research and training support to the RI-INBRE members and the Rhode Island biomedical research community. A vacant research associate position has recently been filled. During the past year, more than 20 research groups used the Facility, with an average frequency of 400 usages per quarter. Besides the faculty, the users included 14 postdoctoral fellows, 40 graduate students, and 23 undergraduate students. The new users were trained in utilizing various technologies for their research projects. Utilizing the Core Facility, the Facility staff also participated in teaching undergraduate and graduate laboratory courses offered by the College of Pharmacy. Several instructional and training seminars were organized in collaboration with instrument manufacturers, such as Real-Time PCR and Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectrometry. To set up a new gene transfection facility, equipment has been acquired, consisting of incubator, shaking incubator, PCR, and horizontal gel electrophoresis system. In addition, the existing inverted microscope will be upgraded for digital image processing. Other equipment and software packages acquired this year include: a NanoDrop fluorospectrometer, a rotary evaporator, and Rosetta Resolver software for the DNA microarray system. The Core Facility equipment and it's resources continue to be made available to researchers from all Rhode Island academic and research institutions, without paying any user fees. As of February 2006, the printing service has already printed about 200 posters this year for investigators from the member institutions. In April 2006, a one-day workshop on flow cytometry is scheduled. Like the previous instructional workshops, this workshop will be open to students and investigators from all RI-INBRE partner institutions.

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子弹和调查员（PI）可能已经从其他NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他清晰的条目中代表。列出的机构适用于该中心，这不一定是调查员的机构。集中的研究核心设施是为RI-INBRE成员和罗德岛生物医学研究社区提供研究和培训支持的第三年。最近填补了空置的研究助理职位。在过去的一年中，有20多个研究小组使用该设施，平均每季度使用400次使用。除了教职员工，用户还包括14名博士后研究员，40名研究生和23名本科生。新用户接受了利用各种技术进行研究项目的培训。利用核心设施，设施人员还参与了药学院提供的教学本科生和研究生实验室课程。与仪器制造商合作组织了几个教学和培训研讨会，例如实时PCR和傅立叶变换的红外光谱法。为了建立一个新的基因转染设施，已经采集了设备，包括孵化器，振动孵化器，PCR和水平凝胶电泳系统。此外，现有的倒置显微镜将升级用于数字图像处理。今年收购的其他设备和软件包包括：DNA微阵列系统的Nanodrop荧光光度计，旋转蒸发器和Rosetta解析器软件。核心设施设备及其资源继续向所有罗德岛学术和研究机构的研究人员提供，而无需支付任何用户费用。截至2006年2月，印刷服务已经为成员机构的调查人员打印了约200张海报。 2006年4月，安排了一日关于流式细胞仪的研讨会。像以前的教学研讨会一样，该研讨会将向所有RI-INBRE合作伙伴机构的学生和调查人员开放。
