曼宁获得美国国家科学基金会奖助学金
美高梅博彩's Dr. Thomas Manning is one of eight
scientists who will share a $620,000 grant from the National
Science Foundation for further research of a cancer drug. The grant
entitled "Acquisition of Equipment for Analytical Scanning Electron
Microscope with Applications in Biology, Chemistry, Geology, and
Engineering," is for further research into the fundamentals and
applied studies with nanostructures and nanoparticles, which are
materials that are a 100,000 times smaller than a human hair.
Dr. Thomas Manning, professor in the Chemistry Department who
worked with the late Dr. Linda Chamberlin of the vs上 Biology
Department, is working on the cancer drug bryostatin. The grant
will allow more research into the role of nanoparticles that play a
role in the production of this cancer drug, which cost several
million dollars to produce. The purpose of this research is to find
an inexpensive way to produce this drug so its use can
expand.
"We anticipate that this award will allow us to continue to uncover
new knowledge, both fundamental and applied in nature. It should
also serve as an excellent tool for vs上 students to work on cutting
edge projects" Manning said.
