CONTINUED TO ADVANCE SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY IN THE FIELDS OF AGING, HEART REGENERATION, NERVE REGENERATION AND WOUND HEALING THROUGH THE PUBLICATION OF PEER-REVIEWED RESEARCH FINDINGS IN PRESTIGIOUS SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS. ATTRACTED TWO NEW RESEARCH TEAMS SUPPORTED BY NIH INBRE (IDEA NETWORK OF BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH EXCELLENCE) FUNDING FOR RESEARCH ON REGENERATION AND AGING. LAUNCHED CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW, 6,560-SQUARE-FOOT MAINE CENTER FOR BIOMEDICAL INNOVATION FUNDED THROUGH A 2014 STATE BOND ISSUE; PLANNED INAUGURAL COURSES FOCUSED ON INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP. CONTINUED TO OFFER MORE THAN 30 COURSES SERVING HUNDREDS OF STUDENTS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND REPRESENTING ALL LEVELS OF EDUCATION,FROM HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO SCIENCE AND MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS. SPONSORED A SIGNATURE COURSE ON AGING ATTRACTING TOP SCIENTISTS IN THE FIELD FROM AROUND THE GLOBE TO EXAMINE THE FUNDAMENTAL BIOLOGICAL QUESTIONS UNDERLYING THE PROCESS OF AGING. CONTINUED THE INSTITUTION'S ROLE AS A LEADER IN BIOINFORMATICS EDUCATION WITH THE ADDITION TO THE BIOINFORMATICS CURRICULUM OF A FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND "BARN-RAISING FOR DATA-INTENSIVE DISCOVERY" WORKSHOP. SPONSORED A BLOCKBUSTER ART MEETS SCIENCE EXHIBITION TIED TO THE CENTENNIAL OF ACADIA NATIONAL PARK,WHOSE FOUNDERS WERE INSTRUMENTAL IN ESTABLISHING THE MDI BIOLOGICAL LABORATORY AT ITS PRESENT LOCATION IN THE 1920S. CONTINUED A HIGHLY REGARDED SERIES OF OUTREACH ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING FAMILY SCIENCE NIGHT AND MDI SCIENCE CAFES,TO ENGAGE THE PUBLIC IN THE INSTITUTION'S RESEARCH AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS AND TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC LITERACY. STRENGTHENED COMMUNICATION WITH THE PUBLIC AND WITH INSTITUTIONAL STAKEHOLDERS ON THE INSTITUTION'S ACHIEVEMENTS THROUGH AN INVIGORATED MEDIA OUTREACH CAMPAIGN AND THE "BREAKING THROUGH" BLOG. CONTINUED EFFORTS TO RESTORE EELGRASS HABITAT IN MAINE AND TO CROWD-SOURCE DATA FROM CITIZEN SCIENTISTS ABOUT EELGRASS IN GENERAL AND THE DISAPPEARANCE OF EELGRASS FROM COASTAL WATERS. CONTINUED TO DEVELOP THE ONLINE PORTAL, ANECDATA.ORG.,AS A TOOL FOR CROWD- SOURCING DATA FROM CITIZEN SCIENTISTS INVOLVED IN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND COMMUNITY ACTION INITIATIVES. | Desc |
