CHARGE
Demonstrate how goals and objectives of growing
the research program achieves
  • Sustainability in the foreseeable future
  • Relationship to college compact plan
  • Relationship to thrust areas of the institution
    (biotechnology, nanotechnology and materials
    science, environmental science, information
    technologies and high performance computing)

College of Agriculture Life Sciences
  • Is a Unique College
  • because of the
  • NC Agricultural Research Service

5
NC Agricultural Research Service
  • Research arm for college
  • Separate budget line in state budget
  • Federal formula funds (1887)
  • Statewide mandate for agricultural research

Federal Formula Funds
Obligation to address national goals
  • An agricultural system that is highly competitive
    in the global economy
  • A safe and secure food and fiber system
  • A healthy, well-nourished population
  • An agricultural system which protects natural
    resources and the environment
  • Enhanced economic opportunity and quality of life
    for Americans

College of Agriculture Life Sciences
  • Agriculture -- State and formula funds
  • Sponsored research

11
Growing Sponsored ResearchinCollege of
Agriculture Life Sciences
Strategy
  • Establish priority areas
  • Recruit key faculty
  • Support startup and support facilities
  • Organize program (centers) and support

12
College of Agriculture Life Sciences
Examples -- Priority Areas
  • Genomics
  • Fungal Genomics
  • Nematode Genomics
  • Plant Animal Genomics
  • Environmental Issues
  • Animal Poultry Waste Mangement
  • Center for Environmental Farming System
  • Integrated Pest Management
  • Bioprocessing
  • Homeland Security
  • Proteomics

13
College of Agriculture Life Sciences
Priority Area -- Proteomics Five faculty hires in
Biochemistry Investment in NMR, X-ray
Crystallography, mass spectrometry Need high
throughput protein sequencing facility Priority
Area -- Bioprocessing Redirection plus two new
faculty in Biological Agricultural
Engineering Investment in bioprocessing
laboratory and equipment
14
College of Agriculture Life Sciences(Continued)
Priority Area -- Homeland Security Strong fungal
genomics group Special grant from USDA (400,000)
for incentive Need BSL3 facility
15
College of Agriculture Life Sciences
Compact Plan
  • Increase funding from Grants Contracts
  • Enhance genomics and proteomics
  • Proteomics position in Biochemistry
  • Toxicogenomics position in Toxicology
  • Genomics positions in Animal Science, Poultry
    Science, Entomology

16
College of Agriculture Life Sciences(Continued)
  • Bioprocessing
  • Bioprocessing positions in Biological
    Agricultural Engineering
  • Bioprocessing support facility
  • Environmental issues
  • Air Quality -- position in Biological
    Agricultural Engineering
  • Post-doctoral position in Soil Science
  • Nutrient management position in Soil Science

17
College of Agriculture Life Sciences
Summary
  • Balanced Program
  • Land-grant mission in agriculture
  • Basic research -- sponsored
  • Strategy/Priorities
  • Relationship to Compact and University
  • Sustainability(?)
  • Solid foundation
  • Budget -- needed investments(?)
