This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Castleton State College (CSC) Highlights 2009-2010 In health and medical sciences, the College is in a rebuilding year. Lara Carlson who received several VGN awards left following spring 2009 to take a position at another college. Justin Carlstrom was hired to replace her. He is not yet doing research that can be funded through the Vermont Genetics Network, but is hoping to launch a research program next year. In fall 2009, we also hired a new geneticist. Deborah Alonghi's interests include molecular evolutionary genetics and genomics. She is knowledgeable about, and interested in bioinformatics, particularly as a portal to 21st Century Biology Education. We expect that she will take advantage of the opportunities offered by the VGN grant. Deborah will have a VGN pilot award pending VGN's renewal. In spring 2010, we hired a new microbiologist. Preston Garcia's interests include everything relating to microbiology and immunology. Preston impressed the search committee with his concrete plans to continue research here, at the college. He was excited to hear about the opportunities to use proteomics in laboratories for his course work as well as his research with students. If the VGN grant is renewed, we will encourage Preston to apply for a pilot award next year. In spring 2010, we searched for a new chemist. One criterion the search committee used was interest in maintaining a research program that involves undergraduates. We were unsuccessful, but will renew the search next year. Finally, in spring 2010, we hired a candidate for a new faculty line in health, hosted in the Physical Education Department. Katy Culpo has research interests in nutrition and obesity. She, too, will be encouraged to consider applying for a VGN award.

该子项目是利用资源的众多研究子项目之一 由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 并且子项目的主要研究者可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其他 NIH 来源。 子项目可能列出的总成本 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， NCRR 赠款不直接向子项目或子项目工作人员提供资金。 卡斯尔顿州立学院 (CSC) 2009-2010 年亮点 在健康和医学科学领域，学院正处于重建之年。 获得多项 VGN 奖项的拉拉·卡尔森 (Lara Carlson) 于 2009 年春季离开，前往另一所大学任职。 贾斯汀·卡尔斯特罗姆被聘请接替她。 他尚未进行可以通过佛蒙特州遗传学网络资助的研究，但希望明年启动一项研究计划。 2009 年秋季，我们还聘请了一位新的遗传学家。 Deborah Alonghi 的兴趣包括分子进化遗传学和基因组学。 她对生物信息学知识渊博且感兴趣，尤其是作为 21 世纪生物教育的门户。 我们希望她能够利用 VGN 赠款提供的机会。 Deborah 将获得 VGN 飞行员奖励，等待 VGN 续签。 2010 年春季，我们聘请了一位新的微生物学家。 普雷斯顿·加西亚 (Preston Garcia) 的兴趣包括与微生物学和免疫学相关的一切。 普雷斯顿在学院继续研究的具体计划给选拔委员会留下了深刻的印象。 他很高兴听到有机会在实验室中使用蛋白质组学来完成他的课程作业以及与学生的研究。 如果 VGN 拨款得到续签，我们将鼓励普雷斯顿明年申请试点奖项。 2010 年春天，我们寻找一位新的化学家。 遴选委员会使用的标准之一是有兴趣维持一个涉及本科生的研究项目。 我们没有成功，但明年将重新进行搜索。 最后，在 2010 年春季，我们为体育系的新健康系聘用了一名候选人。 凯蒂·库尔波 (Katy Culpo) 对营养和肥胖症有研究兴趣。 我们也将鼓励她考虑申请 VGN 奖项。
