Award Description: Cooperative Research Parnterships for Biodefense (U01) RFA-AI-07-003
Project Description: Two extremely gifted and motivated undergraduate students were supported through the summer of 2009 by the ARRA Summer Student Administrative Supplement. This has been a particularly difficult time for students to find appropriate summer employment that would further their research interests, and it is exceedingly fortuitous that the NIH provided funds to provide support via administrative supplements. One student is desirous of entering an MD-PhD program while the other is interested in pursuing a career in research -- particularly in the area of drug discovery and development. Both students have expressed a desire to continue working in the PI’s laboratory in the summer of 2010 as well. They have assisted us in meeting two important Specific Aims of 5U01AI077947-02 (Project Title: Preclinical development of DS-96, a novel alkylpolyamine endotoxin sequestrant.)
