All Nations LSAMP, housed at Salish Kootenai College, serves as a funding clearinghouse for 25 tribal colleges and 11 other predominantly Native American serving universities, to start up and sustain science and research programs that meet the particular needs of the communities they serve.
In particular, the institution could no longer secure sufficient funds from denominational sources alone to sustain science research.
Findings also suggest that specialist hospitals relying on a continuous stream of new products, services and processes to meet their strategic aspirations are better positioned to sustain science-based innovative search activities than their generalist counterparts.
However, both challenges represent a stimulus for a more sustained interaction between science, the social sciences and the humanities to construct the foundations for tomorrow's initiatives in international science policy.
The plan provides "a workable funding level for a balanced program that sustains the science, technology and engineering base," said the letter, signed by George Miller of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Michael R. Anastasio of the Los Alamos National Laboratory and Paul Hommert of the Sandia National Laboratories.
[Read the rest] The article notes this is seen by the White House as a way to sustain energy science and technology development even as the automatic spending cuts kick in under what's being called sequestration — a euphemism for forced cuts in all programs because of political deadlock over changes in taxes and entitlements.
Others have demonstrated memory-erasing effects by blocking an enzyme called PKM-ζ that appears to be necessary for sustaining memories (Science, 17 August 2007, p. 883).
This is a major success in the current position and will allow us to sustain the science and engineering base and build for the future.
He said: "This investment from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) for the first phase of major five-year research programmes will sustain excellent science at some of the UK's leading institutes and universities.
The results of the study indicate that sustained, inquiry-based science professional development can positively impact the quality of science teaching and that teachers engaged their students in frequent, high-quality, investigative neuroscience activities.
