The Vermont Genetics Network (VGN) BRIN has been successful in its first 3 years in building research infrastructure in the State of Vermont at the Baccalaureate Partner Institutions (BPIs) and at the lead institution, the University of Vermont. VGN has built a human resource, electronic, and facilities Network that serves VGN members and other biomedical research scientists in Vermont. VGN is a set of programs that support research of faculty and students at the BPIs; provide mentoring for all faculty and students in the network; provide essential services for research through the Bioinformatics Core; bring new technology such as Microarrays to the state; foster research of new faculty at the University of Vermont through set-up funding; provide outreach services to the BPIs; and open up the University of Vermont facilities to the BPIs. We request renewal of funds for VGN under the INBRE Program, in which we will build upon our strengths and add new programs. We have Four Specific Aims: Aim 1. Build a Culture of Research at the BPIs that will be sustained. To accomplish this aim, we will support research of 13 selected Pis from the BPIs, renovate research space at 4 BPIs, support undergraduate research, support BPI faculty through competitive Pilot Project funds, and support coordinators and grants administrators to facilitate the growth of cultures of research at the BPIs. Aim 2. Establish an Outreach Core. For institutions outside our network, we will provide custom designed classroom visits and other services; bring curriculum modules into the classes with technical assistance and equipment to make them succeed; provide a Bioinformatics workshop; provide a Networking and Professional Development Program for faculty and students; hold our Career Day; and recruit undergraduates into Vermont from high schools with underrepresented populations (funded as University programs). Aim 3. Strengthen the Research Capacity and Critical Mass of Genetics Biomedical Researchers at the University of Vermont as a Resource for the entire State. We plan to support crucial facilities, support recruitment of the highest quality new faculty, support graduate students, and provide Networking and Professional Development programs. Aim 4. Assess the progress of the VGN through longitudinal studies. We have already established an effective assessment program and begun longitudinal studies that we will use in our INBRE phase. We have very strong commitments from all network administrators to sustain our programs and gains. BPI administrators are enthusiastically embracing the challenges of INBRE to provide release time and encourage research among their faculty and students. We have made a significant impact in our first three years, and we will make a lasting systemic change in Vermont's research infrastructure and research and biomedical education capacity.

佛蒙特州遗传学网络 (VGN) BRIN 在前 3 年的研究建设中取得了成功 佛蒙特州的基础设施在学士学位合作机构 (BPI) 中处于领先地位 机构，佛蒙特大学。 VGN建立了人力资源、电子和设施 为佛蒙特州 VGN 成员和其他生物医学研究科学家提供服务的网络。 VGN是一个集合 支持 BPI 教师和学生研究的项目；为所有教师提供指导 以及网络中的学生；通过生物信息学核心为研究提供基本服务； 将微阵列等新技术引入该州；促进大学新教师的研究 佛蒙特州通过设立资金；向 BPI 提供外展服务；并开放大学 佛蒙特州设施的 BPI。我们请求根据 INBRE 计划为 VGN 续订资金， 我们将利用我们的优势并增加新的计划。我们有四个具体目标： 目标 1。 在 BPI 中建立可持续的研究文化。为了实现这一目标，我们将支持 对 BPI 中选定的 13 个 Pi 进行研究，翻新 4 个 BPI 的研究空间，支持本科生 研究，通过竞争性试点项目资金支持 BPI 教师，并支持协调员和 资助管理者促进 BPI 研究文化的发展。目标 2. 建立 外展核心。对于我们网络之外的机构，我们将提供定制设计的课堂参观 和其他服务；通过技术援助和设备将课程模块带入课堂 让他们成功；提供生物信息学研讨会；提供网络和专业 教师和学生发展计划；举办我们的职业日；并招收本科生 佛蒙特州来自人口代表性不足的高中（作为大学项目资助）。目标3。 加强遗传学生物医学研究人员的研究能力和临界质量 佛蒙特大学作为整个州的资源。我们计划支持关键设施，支持招聘最优质的新教师，支持研究生，并提供网络和 专业发展计划。目标 4. 通过纵向评估 VGN 的进展 研究。我们已经建立了有效的评估计划并开始纵向研究 我们将在 INBRE 阶段使用它。所有网络管理员都做出了非常坚定的承诺 维持我们的计划和成果。 BPI 管理员正在热情地迎接挑战 INBRE 提供发布时间并鼓励教师和学生进行研究。我们有 在我们的前三年中产生了重大影响，我们将在 佛蒙特州的研究基础设施以及研究和生物医学教育能力。
