The important needs outlined below will strengthen
research and scholarship in a variety of disciplines.
The Leadership Program in Biomedical Engineering.
Under the Leadership
Program, three educational programs coupled to frontline
BME research will be greatly enhanced and expanded:
genomic and proteomic engineering; cellular and subcellular
engineering; and physiological systems dynamics. These
programs will train the next generation of engineers
to better understand the basic processes that govern
the genetic code and the cell cycle and enable them
to develop new technologies at the genetic and cellular
levels to fight disease.

Professor H. Eugene Stanley's
Center for Polymer Studies.
Professor Gene
Stanley successfully applies statistical physics tools
in the unraveling of the mysteries surrounding Alzheimer's
disease. His most recent advances are in the form of
technological improvements as well as new scientific
hypotheses on the nature of AD that address this ailment's
underlying mechanisms, and that may narrow the search
for a cure.

The Boston University Biodiversity
Station at Tiputini, Ecuador.
The Boston University
Biodiversity Station at Tiputini, Ecuador, is a collaborative
effort with the Universidad San Francisco de Quito to
understand and protect the biodiversity of the Amazonian
rainforest through basic research and policy advisories.
Tiputini is linked to the University by the Center
for Ecology and Conservation Biology (CECB),
to which charitable donations may be made.
