DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Colorado School of Dentistry (SOD) is a regional school with the potential for excellence in oral health research. In the past five years, SOD has improved its standing in terms of MDCR research funding from 48th-21st. It has obtained a construction grant from the NCRR to complete state-of-the-art laboratories at the new Fitzsimons Campus of the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, and an NIDCR R24 award to develop its Infrastructure Enhancement Plan (IEP). The school has successfully recruited new research faculty, thereby expanding its research focus and collaborations. OBJECTIVES: SOD now seeks NIDCR funds to support the implementation of an IEP designed to enhance its research capacity and competitiveness. Part I describes the process by which we undertook an assessment of critical needs. As a result of this self study, we have identified three programmatic areas for which a critical mass of scientific investigators and collaborative partnerships will be created to add depth and breadth to the research endeavors of the school. These areas include: Craniofacial Developmental Biology, Biomaterials/Bioengineering, and Head and Neck Cancer. We are also committed to improving research training of undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral students. Our long-term objective is the establishment of a regional Comprehensive Center for Oral Health within SOD. In Part H we describe our Infrastructure Improvement Plan by which we intend to recruit new faculty to the identified programmatic areas, and increase our students' interest in pursuing careers in oral health research. Members of our Internal Advisory Committee (IAC) and External Scientific and Program Advisory Committee (ESPAC) are identified. In Part HI, we describe the methods by which the recruitment of new faculty and training of students will precede. In Part IV we list Letters of Commitment for space and tenure, as well as Letters of Support from our ESP AC to assist us with the implementation of our plan.

描述（由申请人提供）：科罗拉多大学牙科学院（SOD）是一所区域学校，具有卓越的口腔健康研究。在过去的五年中，SOD从48-21st的MDCR研究资金方面提高了其地位。它已从NCRR获得了建设赠款，以在科罗拉多大学健康科学中心的新Fitzsimons校园内完成最先进的实验室，并获得了NIDCR R24奖，以制定其基础设施增强计划（IEP）。该学校已成功招募了新的研究学院，从而扩大了其研究重点和合作。目标：SOD现在寻求NIDCR资金来支持旨在增强其研究能力和竞争力的IEP的实施。第一部分描述了我们对关键需求进行评估的过程。这项自我研究的结果是，我们已经确定了三个程序化领域，将建立大量的科学研究人员和协作伙伴关系，以增加学校研究的深度和广度。这些领域包括：颅面发育生物学，生物材料/生物工程以及头颈癌。我们还致力于改善本科，研究生和博士后学生的研究培训。我们的长期目标是建立了SOD内的区域综合口腔健康中心。在H部分中，我们描述了我们打算将新教师招募到已确定的程序化领域的基础设施改进计划，并增加学生从事口腔健康研究职业的兴趣。确定了我们内部咨询委员会（IAC）的成员以及外部科学和计划咨询委员会（ESPAC）。在HI的一部分中，我们描述了新教师招募和学生培训的方法。在第四部分中，我们列出了空间和任期的承诺信，以及我们的ESP AC的支持信，以帮助我们实施计划。
