DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): As one of the fastest growing Universities in the United States, Florida Atlantic University (FAU) recognizes the need to serve a diverse population. Situated in South Florida, a multi-cultural environment, FAU draws many of its students from the local community. As the higher education needs of the underrepresented minorities in the area grow, they will likely turn more and more to FAU to service those needs. To that end, FAU would like to develop competitive research programs that increase the number of underrepresented minorities professionally engaged in biomedical research. FAU is the most ethnically diverse institution in the State of Florida. The University community has more than 25,000 students and 900 faculty. Through its 8 colleges, FAU offers more than 170 baccalaureate, master's, and doctoral degree programs and conducts basic and applied research. Biomedical sciences is one of FAU's strategic themes, with a commitment to quality and cultural diversity. The FAU focus on biomedical sciences is represented by the 14 subprojects and 6 pilot subprojects in the present proposal. The research encompasses the Departments of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Biomedical Science, and Biological Sciences, and includes the synthesis or biosynthesis and characterization of novel therapeutics, understanding the basic mechanisms of tumor cell invasion, Sjogren's syndrome, cardiomyopathies, neuron survival in the olfactory system, RNA damage during oxidative stress, and lipid signaling in diet, microbiology/bioterrorism, and development of resonance Raman spectroscopy as a cellular probe. The majority of the investigators are junior faculty, and the SCORE Program would provide a tremendously important stepping stone in their research careers. For the more senior investigators, the Program would allow them to pursue new research areas or restart projects that had been slowed by substantial teaching assignments. The training of personnel would be substantial, and critical given the influx of biomedical employment opportunities to Palm Beach County. The MBRS SCORE Program would facilitate faculty development and training in all areas of biomedical research at a major minority serving institution.

描述（由申请人提供）：作为佛罗里达大西洋大学（FAU）美国增长最快的大学之一，认识到为多样化的人群服务的必要性。 FAU位于佛罗里达州南佛罗里达州，是一种多元文化的环境，吸引了许多来自当地社区的学生。随着该地区代表性不足的少数群体的高等教育需求的增长，他们可能会越来越多地转向FAU来满足这些需求。为此，FAU希望制定竞争性的研究计划，以增加从事生物医学研究的专业人数不足的少数群体的数量。 FAU是佛罗里达州最多样化的机构。大学社区有25,000多名学生和900名教职员工。通过其8所大学，FAU提供了170多个学士学位，硕士和博士学位课程，并进行了基础和应用研究。生物医学科学是FAU的战略主题之一，对质量和文化多样性的承诺。 FAU对生物医学科学的关注在本提案中由14个副标理和6个试点副投射表示。这项研究涵盖了化学和生物化学，生物医学科学和生物科学系，包括新型治疗学的合成或生物合成和特征，了解肿瘤细胞侵袭的基本机制，Sjogren的基本机制，Sjogren的综合征，心肌疗法，神经元损害，神经元损坏，oilna offival of Olna，RID，RID，RID，RID，RID，RID，RIP，RID，RIP NNA，RED，RIP NNA，RIP rip rip rip。微生物学/生物恐怖主义，以及作为细胞探针的共振拉曼光谱的发展。大多数调查人员是初级教师，得分计划将在其研究职业中提供非常重要的垫脚石。对于更高级的调查人员，该计划将使他们能够追求新的研究领域或重新启动因实质性教学任务而放缓的项目。鉴于生物医学就业机会涌入棕榈滩县，对人员的培训将是很大的，而且至关重要。 MBRS得分计划将促进主要少数派服务机构的生物医学研究领域的教师发展和培训。
