School of Molecular Biosciences<br />
Policy and Proc<strong>edu</strong>res<br />
<strong>Washington</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong><br />
Last revised - by Faculty 23 September 2004<br />
I. Objectives: The objectives of the School are to foster an environment conducive to<br />
the achievement of excellence in teaching at the undergraduate and graduate level<br />
and in research related to molecular biosciences. The term, "molecular biosciences,"<br />
is a general reference to the fields of biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology, genetics<br />
and microbiology.<br />
II. School Director:<br />
A. Administration of the School shall be the responsibility of the Director.<br />
B. Duties of the Director shall be those specified in the Faculty Manual of the<br />
<strong>University</strong> but include the fiscal operation of the School, assignment of teaching<br />
duties and space, and conducting annual reviews of all faculty members.<br />
C. The Director shall be selected as specified in the Faculty Manual of the<br />
<strong>University</strong>.<br />
D. Term of office of the Director shall normally be 4 years in compliance with the<br />
Faculty Manual. In the case of the first Director, a term of 3 years has been agreed<br />
on with the Dean of Science. In the event of extreme urgency, the Director may be<br />
removed. Proc<strong>edu</strong>res for the termination of office are outlined in the Faculty Manual.<br />
III. Faculty:<br />
A. Eligible faculty members of the School shall be determined in accordance with<br />
the Faculty Manual. The Director will annually supply a complete list of current<br />
eligible faculty members to each faculty member.<br />
FTE tenured faculty vote on all issues<br />
FTE untenured tenure track faculty vote on all issues except tenure and<br />
promotions<br />
FTE nontenure track faculty vote on all undergraduate and faculty<br />
issues except tenure and promotions<br />
NonFTE nontenure track faculty not eligible to attend faculty meetings<br />
unless participation is invited by Director<br />
and not eligible to vote<br />
NonFTE associate graduate Faculty vote on all graduate issues except<br />

page 1
B. Usual proc<strong>edu</strong>re for selection of new faculty in the School:<br />
1. Establish job description and advertise nationally.<br />
2. A Selection Committee and its Chairperson shall be appointed by the Director<br />
to recommend candidates for each position.<br />
3. Final candidates must be interviewed and present a seminar.<br />
4. The Selection Committee shall seek the advice of all faculty members prior to<br />
making their final recommendation to the Director.<br />
5. The Director will define the conditions and expectations for a new faculty<br />
member and will provide him/her with copies of the School Policy and<br />
Proc<strong>edu</strong>res including proc<strong>edu</strong>res for evaluation of performance.<br />
6. There maybe unusual circumstances such as spousal accommodations or<br />
unique opportunities when aspects of this proc<strong>edu</strong>re (such as national search)<br />
may be bypassed.<br />
C. Evaluation of performance of faculty members:<br />
1. Proc<strong>edu</strong>res for evaluating faculty performance shall be determined by the<br />
Director in consultation with the Advisory Committee, will be consistent with<br />
current College of Sciences policy, and will be communicated in writing to each<br />
member at the time of his/her appointment.<br />
2. Individual faculty will be reviewed annually and evaluated for contributions to<br />
instruction, research, and service using a personalized distribution of percent<br />
effort among those three areas. Faculty members receiving the most meritorious<br />
evaluations must be excellent in all three areas.<br />
3. Even after a faculty member has attained the rank of Professor, the Director<br />
will make an annual evaluation of performance using the guidelines adopted by<br />
the College and the <strong>University</strong>. It is expected that these senior members of the<br />
faculty will continue to set high standards.<br />
D. Proc<strong>edu</strong>re for review and recommendation of faculty members to acquiring<br />
tenure or promotion:<br />
1. The general guidelines for acquiring tenure and the guidelines for promotion<br />
are set forth in the <strong>University</strong> Faculty Manual and the School guidelines for<br />
evaluation of performance are Appendix I to this code.<br />
2. The faculty member being considered for tenure is responsible for insuring<br />
that his/her dossier is complete and as informative as possible. The Director will<br />
provide advice in preparing the dossier and other documents.<br />
page 2
3. A committee of tenured faculty appointed annually in the Spring by the<br />
Director will consider faculty members eligible for tenure and promotion. This<br />
committee will be called the Promotions and Tenure Committee, and will prepare<br />
a written evaluation of the faculty member. The Director usually will initiate the<br />
promotion and tenure process, although an individual faculty member may initiate<br />
a promotion request for consideration by the Promotion and Tenure Committee.<br />
The Director will annually review with the Promotion and Tenure Committee the<br />
status of all faculty who are eligible for promotion.<br />
4. In relation to tenure decisions, the report from the Promotions and Tenure<br />
Committee relating to each faculty member considered will be available to<br />
tenured faculty in the School Office for their perusal prior to voting. The tenured<br />
faculty will vote to make a recommendation to grant or deny tenure to each<br />
faculty member being considered.<br />
5. In relation to promotion, the report from the Promotions and Tenure<br />
Committee relating to each faculty member considered will be available to<br />
eligible faculty in the School Office for their perusal prior to voting. The eligible<br />
faculty will vote to make a recommendation in favor of or against promotion of the<br />
faculty member being considered.<br />
6. The written recommendation of the Promotions and Tenure Committee,<br />
together with a tally of the vote of tenured or eligible faculty, will be transmitted to<br />
the Director who will write a review either approving of the faculty action or<br />
recommending reversal and will submit the package to the Dean.<br />
E. Proc<strong>edu</strong>re and guidelines for appointment of non-tenure track, non-FTE (NTT-<br />
NFTE) faculty (e.g., research-assistant, -associate or -full professor.) It is<br />
recognized that appointment of senior postdoctoral fellows to non-tenure track, non-<br />
FTE faculty positions can be advantageous to the appointee and to the institution in<br />
that this appointment would allow for independent submission of grant proposals.<br />
Appointments to these titles recognize the independent professorial contributions of<br />
individuals within research programs and provide opportunities for career<br />
advancement within the research professorial track. Since this type of appointment<br />
carries with it a level of independence and the right to use some School resources, it<br />
also caries with it responsibilities to the School. Individuals may be asked to<br />
participate in teaching, committee work or in other School activities.<br />
1. Candidates for the position of research assistant professor shall present a<br />
seminar to the School faculty. Following the seminar—and prior to applying for<br />
external funding—candidates must be approved by the Steering Committee<br />
based on the following criteria.<br />
a. Ph.D. degree, or equivalent, and at least three years of postdoctoral<br />
experience<br />
b. Support from a member of the School faculty. The facilities, equipment<br />
and space must be identified and come from that of the mentor. The School<br />
page 3
will not provide additional space, facilities or support unless agreed upon in<br />
advance of the submission of a grant proposal. This support will include<br />
provision of the opportunity to meet criteria for promotion to research<br />
associate professor as outlined below.<br />
c. The candidate's potential to contribute effectively to the research programs<br />
of the School and to successfully meet the criteria for promotion to research<br />
associate professor, generally achieved after five years in rank.<br />
2. Candidates for promotion or appointment to research associate professor<br />
shall meet all requirements as outlined in the <strong>University</strong> Faculty Manual. In<br />
addition, the senior faculty of the School will review candidates with respect to<br />
the following criteria.<br />
a. Development of independent research funding.<br />
b. Evidence of independent research achievement.<br />
c. Active participation in School seminars and in research-related<br />
administrative activities.<br />
d. Participation in the teaching program of the School is encouraged.<br />
3. Candidates for promotion or appointment to research professor should show<br />
continuing excellence in the criteria listed for promotion to research associate<br />
professor and should be recognized internationally as a leader in his/her field of<br />
specialization.<br />
4. Salary requests on proposals must be approved by the Director and must be<br />
in line with FTE faculty at the same level. NTT-NFTE faculty will be reviewed<br />
annually as part of the regular, annual review process. The Director is<br />
responsible for these annual reviews. Any recommended salary increases will<br />
be based on these reviews and consultation with the mentor.<br />
5. NTT-NFTE faculty and their mentors will be asked to sign a memorandum<br />
agreeing to the above conditions.<br />
6. NTT-NFTE faculty cannot train SMB graduate students unless appointed as<br />
an Associate Graduate trainer of SMB.<br />
F. Proc<strong>edu</strong>re for appointment of associate graduate faculty.<br />
1. Faculty will vote on accepting an individual associate only after a meeting of<br />
the full faculty to discuss the candidacy of that associate. The meeting will allow<br />
for a thoughtful evaluation of the qualifications of any applicant for training of<br />
SMB graduate students. Acceptance as an associate will be based on the<br />
following criteria.<br />
page 4
a. An active, funded research program that can plausibly be relied upon as<br />
the source of continuing support for an SMB graduate student.<br />
b. An essay from the prospective associate describing her/his philosophy of<br />
graduate student training.<br />
c. A stated willingness to carry out collegial functions in the SMB graduate<br />
program.<br />
d. Documentation that research by previously trained graduate students (if<br />
any) has been published.<br />
2. Appointment will require a majority vote (by voice or ballot) of the FTE<br />
graduate faculty.<br />
3. Faculty who are not currently SMB associates may not recruit or supervise<br />
SMB students toward a degree until they have received associate faculty status.<br />
4. By accepting the appointment as associate graduate faculty members in<br />
SMB, the faculty member agrees to accept the conditions for graduate student<br />
support and training as outlined in this document. In addition, the student will be<br />
supported at least at the same level (salary) as is determined by SMB.<br />
5. There will be a biennial evaluation of Associate status by the Director.<br />
IV. School Meetings:<br />
A. The Director shall call School faculty meetings as needed but at least once in the<br />
Fall and once in the Spring semester. All attempts will be made to provide a written<br />
agenda in advance.<br />
B. Other meetings may be called at the discretion of the Director or the Steering<br />
Committee.<br />
C. Efforts will be made to communicate items of interest to the faculty via E-mail.<br />
D. One graduate student elected by the graduate students active in the School<br />
(usually the head of the graduate student organization) will attend faculty meetings.<br />
The graduate student representative will not be present during sensitive discussions<br />
of salary, tenure, and promotions or other issues where faculty privacy must be<br />
assured.<br />
V. Graduate Students:<br />
A. Recruiting<br />
1. The Graduate Recruiting Committee shall consist of members of the graduate<br />
faculty appointed by the Director.<br />
page 5
2. The Graduate Recruiting Committee shall:<br />
a. Review all student applications and in conjunction with the Director<br />
decide the disposition of applications as to acceptance or rejection in a<br />
timely manner.<br />
b. Make recommendations to the Director and Graduate Affairs<br />
Committee regarding the financial support of graduate student for their<br />
first year.<br />
c. Develop and maintain recruiting materials as required.<br />
B. A Student's Graduate Committee:<br />
1. The initial selection, or subsequent changes, of a graduate student’s<br />
committee shall be determined jointly by the student and the student’s advisor<br />
with approval by the Associate Director of Graduate Studies.<br />
2. The graduate committee of each student shall have a minimum of 3 members.<br />
If the advisor is an associate in one of the graduate programs, at least two<br />
members of the committee should be FTE members of the School.<br />
3. The committee should meet at least annually to review and assist the<br />
research progress of the student. This review should be done prior to the annual<br />
faculty review of graduate students in the Spring (May).<br />
C. Student Support and Review:<br />
1. By accepting a student the School is making a commitment for the support of<br />
that student as long as they remain in good standing and satisfy School<br />
academic criteria for a period of up to five calendar years. No faculty member<br />
should accept the responsibility to serve as a Chair of a student's thesis work<br />
without having the good faith and intention of providing support for the duration of<br />
their graduate work. Students may be placed in TA positions after their first year;<br />
however, it will not be the policy of the School for students to spend all or even a<br />
major portion of their graduate career supported by a TA. To assure that<br />
graduate students complete their programs in a timely manner, they are strongly<br />
discouraged from accepting paid employment outside of the School.<br />
2. The support of a student on a RA normally includes 3 months of summer<br />
support and payment of health insurance fees.<br />
3. The performance of each student is reviewed annually in the Spring by the<br />
entire faculty and the students are informed about the outcome of this review by<br />
letter from the Director. Students may be terminated from the Program for poor<br />
classroom performance or for failure to meet School standards in research,<br />
seminars, or other types of exams.<br />
page 6
4. All students at the Ph.D. level will be required to teach a minimum of 1 course<br />
for 1 semester. The teaching can be done while supported by a TA or RA and<br />
should be equivalent to at least the load of a 1/4 time TA given that the standard<br />
load is a 1/2 time TA.<br />
D. Graduate Student Rotations:<br />
1. First Year graduate students are required to do 3 eight week rotations with the<br />
fourth being optional. This allows students to start working in their lab of choice<br />
by the middle of the second semester. Any student who starts as an RA funded<br />
by a specific laboratory may request from the Graduate Affairs Committee a<br />
waiver of this requirement.<br />
2. A maximum of 2 rotating students is permitted per lab per rotation period. The<br />
expectations of the faculty member and the student about the rotation period<br />
should be made clear up front. Expectations can range from simply attending lab<br />
meetings and having a presence in the lab to a defined project. Faculty should<br />
make an effort to provide each rotating student with a valuable experience from<br />
the student's perspective.<br />
3. Under usual circumstances the first year students on TAs the first semester<br />
will be required to be on a TA the second semester.<br />
VI. School Policy and Proc<strong>edu</strong>res:<br />
A. The School Policy and Proc<strong>edu</strong>res document shall be reviewed every fifth year<br />
by the Steering Committee and annually by the Director.<br />
B. Amendments to the code may originate from any eligible School member. All<br />
amendments shall require a majority vote of the eligible faculty members.<br />
C. Appendices to the School code will outline proc<strong>edu</strong>res for development and<br />
evaluation of faculty, and other topics. A majority vote of eligible faculty is necessary<br />
for adoption or modification of an Appendix.<br />
VII. Committee Organization<br />
Standing Committees:<br />
A. Steering Committee: To council the Director in administrative decisions, there<br />
shall be a Steering Committee. One member of the Committee, or a School<br />
secretary, shall record and distribute minutes of each meeting to the faculty and one<br />
copy shall be kept in the School Office.<br />
1. The chairs of the standing School committees and the School Ombudsman<br />
will serve as members of the Steering Committee for the duration of their terms<br />
as committee chairs. The Director of the School will appoint additional faculty<br />
members to three year terms on the Steering Committee to establish a<br />
page 7
complement of nine committee members. Ideally, these additional appointments<br />
will establish a balanced representation of faculty.<br />
2. Members can be reappointed to consecutive terms. Examples of areas in<br />
which the Steering Committee shall assist the Director are:<br />
a. Review, develop and update long-range goals for the School and plans for<br />
their attainment. These ideas shall be presented at least once annually to a<br />
meeting of all faculty.<br />
b. Serve as a sounding board for new ideas, changes, etc., in academic or<br />
administrative issues.<br />
c. Provide guidance on administration of the School.<br />
B. Recruiting Committee: Six members from the School are appointed for staggered<br />
2 year renewable terms to serve on the Recruiting committee. The duties of the<br />
recruiting committee are to evaluate applications for graduate work, solicit input on<br />
applicants, aid in preparation of material for distribution to applicants, and, in<br />
conjunction with the Director, make offers to prospective graduate students.<br />
C. Tenure and Promotions Committee: Six senior level faculty appointed annually<br />
who will initially review files for tenure and promotion and make recommendations<br />
for action to the faculty.<br />
D. Graduate and Undergraduate Studies Committees: Both the graduate and the<br />
curriculum of studies committees will have a similar charge, i.e. To review the<br />
current subject matter in the 3 degree programs with the goal of eliminating<br />
r<strong>edu</strong>ndancies, consolidating courses, and design a seamless curriculum with<br />
common courses leading to specialization in advanced courses. The graduate<br />
studies committee will also attempt to meld the various hurdles required by the<br />
degree programs so that the types of hurdles and their timing are similar but the<br />
content varies by degree programs. These committees will file for change of course<br />
listings to SMB. The associate directors for undergraduate studies and for graduate<br />
studies will chair these committees.<br />
E. Ad hoc Committees: These committees will be assembled as needed by the<br />
Director for specific tasks not covered by the Standing committees.<br />

APPENDICES<br />
Appendix 1<br />
GUIDELINES FOR PROMOTION IN THE SCHOOL OF<br />
MOLECULAR BIOSCIENCES<br />
The general institutional philosophy relating to promotion is defined in the <strong>University</strong><br />
Faculty Manual, and the School of Molecular Biosciences follows those principles. The<br />
Manual outlines, in general terms, scholarly activity in the areas of teaching, research,<br />
and service. Since there is a strong expectation of accomplishment in research within<br />
the School, and since the School has a well established and successful graduate<br />
program, scholarly activities relating to research tend to be predominant when<br />
considering guidelines for promotion. However, teaching at both the undergraduate and<br />
graduate levels also is considered to be very important. In most cases a balanced<br />
combination of teaching, research, and service activities is desirable. The requirements<br />
for promotion become progressively more stringent for advancement to the final level of<br />
Professor. Promotion from Assistant Professor to Associate Professor carries with it the<br />
belief, based on the performance to date, that the individual has the potential to<br />
eventually attain the rank of Professor. However, years in rank will not be sufficient to<br />
ensure promotion. A Professor is expected to have demonstrated scholarly leadership<br />
as evidenced by the attainment and demonstration of clear goals in his/her scholastic<br />
program; recent accomplishments as well as collective achievements are important as<br />
evidence of sustained professional growth. Another example of such evidence is<br />
interaction with more junior faculty to facilitate their professional development.<br />
The following are examples of the types of evidence used when considering promotion<br />
form either Assistant to Associate Professor or Associate Professor to Professor.<br />
1. Teaching<br />
Promotion to Associate Professor. The individual must have demonstrated the ability to<br />
effectively present knowledge to students at the undergraduate and graduate level in a<br />
formal classroom setting, instruct graduate students in research techniques, and<br />
supervise graduate students.<br />
Promotion to Professor. The individual must have provided evidence of continued<br />
excellence in teaching, such as innovation in courses, particularly at the graduate level.<br />
The individual must have documented ability such as supervision of the graduate<br />
program of doctoral students and postdoctoral research. Service on School, College,<br />
and <strong>University</strong> committees is desirable.<br />
2. Research<br />
Promotion to Associate Professor. The individual must have demonstrated the ability to<br />
direct a productive research program on a sustained basis and the potential for<br />
international leadership in research. Receipt of extramural funding as a Principal<br />
page 9
Investigator, prompt publication of research results in refereed scientific journals, and<br />
the direction of student study and research are evidence of productive research, and<br />
indicate ability to function as an independent scholar.<br />
Promotion to Professor. An individual must be recognized internationally as a leader in<br />
his/her field of specialization. Continued leadership of a group devoted to the pursuit of<br />
knowledge and continued receipt of extramural research support is essential.<br />
3. Service<br />
Service to the Division and <strong>University</strong> in the form of committee membership; service to<br />
<strong>State</strong> or Federal government or to the scientific community in the form of membership of<br />
Study Sections; reviewing of papers; organization of symposia or holding office in<br />
scientific societies; consulting; etc. These service-related activities tend to increase in<br />
importance and number of assignments as an individual proceeds to a higher rank.<br />
Willingness to accept various assignments will be taken into consideration as being a<br />
contribution to the School, the <strong>University</strong>, and the scientific community.<br />

Biotechnology Training Program Update<br />
The Biotech Program is at the start of its 17 th year of consecutive full funding from NIH. We have 30 trainees<br />
in the program currently, 12 in SMB and 18 others in diverse disciplines such as Chemistry, Chemical<br />
Engineering, Molecular Plant Sciences, Pharmacology/Toxicology, and Veterinary Microbiology and<br />
Pathology. Our annual Biotechnology symposium will be on October 1, <strong>2005</strong>, featuring Dr. Mickey Urdea<br />
and Dr. V. Bryan Lawlis on the subject of “Careers and Opportunities in Biotechnology.”<br />
Recent program changes include the revision of the Protein Biotechnology course, MBIOS 574 as well as a<br />
collaboration with the College of Business and Economics to develop an MBA program for Ph.D. students in<br />
the sciences. The first course in that series, MKTG 565, Biotechnology Entrepreneurship, will be offered this<br />
fall.

Successes<br />
• Initiated RA/TA swap<br />
• Finished SMB Graduate Handbook<br />
• Reviewed graduate curriculum–established a list of core courses, discipline specific<br />
courses, and recommended courses<br />
• Cleaned up SMB graduate course catalog–started paperwork to remove courses, which<br />
have not been taught recently, and change names of courses (e.g, Biochemistry seminar<br />
to Molecular Biosciences seminar, etc)<br />
Next Goals<br />
• Continue with RA/TA swap<br />
• Develop Microbiology discipline specific course<br />
• Develop Molecular Biociences degree with options in Biochemistry, Genetics and Cell<br />
Biology, or Microbiology
Graduate Recruiting Committee report<br />
Three accomplishments:<br />
1. Generation of outreach tools to aid in recruitment: CD with slides, tri-fold brochure<br />
2. Good success rate on NIH Biotech offers (2/3) and scholarship worthy applicants (3/6)<br />
3. Incoming class of 15 students<br />
2 M.S. Biotech, ave GPA = 3.76<br />
6 thesis M.S., ave GPA = 3.10<br />
7 Ph.D. (6 will rotate), ave GPA = 3/70<br />
Includes two transfers from other departments<br />
Three challenges:<br />
1) Increase number of high quality applicants<br />
Approach: Increase appreciation of the SMB graduate program and its strengths by<br />
communication with our colleagues at other institutions.<br />
Methods to address:<br />
A) Encourage faculty to use materials of CD and tri-fold brochure when they travel to give<br />
seminars or attend meetings.<br />
B) Provide faculty and graduate students with a “Dear colleague/alma mater” letter to send<br />
to faculty and friends at other institutions. Draft in progress.<br />
C) Make and enhance contacts with faculty at four year colleges in <strong>Washington</strong>, Idaho,<br />
Montana, etc, including sending faculty to institutions to give seminars or guest<br />
lectures. Need to establish catalog of contacts.<br />
D) Maintain connections with institutions that have sent us students. Initiate a process of<br />
sending letters to those who write letters of reference keeping them apprised of<br />
student’s progress (ala U. Oregon). Initially focus on most successful students.<br />
2) Identify top candidates faster and recruit more effectively<br />
Approach:<br />
A) Move application deadline to mid-Dec, and begin reviewing files over Xmas break.<br />
B) Use triage proc<strong>edu</strong>re to focus on best files first, as currently done for international files.<br />
C) Contact best candidates quickly to get visitation weekend on their calendar. Eventually,<br />
consider having visitation weekend for such candidates in early to mid Feb.<br />
3) Improve Ph.D. to M.S. ratio<br />
Approach: Current ratio reflects necessary caution for successful implementation of RA-TA<br />
shift (minimizing attrition). Improved ratio is natural result of improving candidate pool.<br />
Goal for next year<br />
Overcome the challenges described above by the approaches and methods noted.

Critical Teaching Needs<br />
● NMR<br />
● Virology<br />
● Microbial Genetics<br />
● Immunology<br />
● General Biochemistry<br />
● Eukaryotic Molecular Genetics
Conclusions<br />
● Faculty number has remained relatively steady over 5 years<br />
● Change in research profile reflects willingness to pursue problem where<br />
ever it leads and new hires since merger<br />
● Courses<br />
● UG: Significant growth has occurred in course enrollment in Gen Micro,<br />
Intro Micro<br />
● Gen Genetics and Intro Biochem has held steady<br />
● Grad: Significant growth in Intro to Cell Biol; Gen Virology, Techniques<br />
in Micro<br />
● Accompanied by growth in Gen Virol Lab, Immunology lab, General<br />
Biochem<br />
● Research<br />
● Weak in structural biology and prokaryote molecular biology<br />
● Also weak in two key areas of molecular, cell biology– transcriptional<br />
regulation and intracellular signaling
Where to from here?<br />
● Operating with a minimal number of full time faculty and instructors<br />
● Need 3 full-time instructors<br />
● Need an immediate national search for at least one faculty<br />
member who can considered a prokaryotic molecular biologist<br />
with an interest in protein structure/function; ultimate goal– 28<br />
full time faculty<br />
● Need to support a search for a new director of the NMR facility<br />
● Curriculum needs careful reassessment<br />
● Cull courses that have been seldom taught or those with<br />
consistent low enrollment<br />
● For specialty courses with low enrollment but high merit, need to<br />
construct cross-institutional partnerships<br />
● Better balancing of teaching loads across all faculty strata;<br />
everyone needs to teach at least one-half of a course each year
Where to from here?<br />
● Create a two tiered advising system with greater faculty participation<br />
and one that focuses on the increasing number of undergraduates<br />
participating in research projects<br />
● Change the way we teach upper level UG and graduate courses– no<br />
didactic lectures– emphasis on self instruction<br />
● Exert more leadership for developing inter-disciplinary programs<br />
● Program in Chromosome Biology<br />
● Program in Biological Biophysics<br />
● Other NIH funded training program
Finally<br />
● Commit to the Glass Half Full Concept<br />
● This is a good place and we can make it better

SMB Mission<br />
Research and training frame the mission of SMB. Our research mission is to employ molecular<br />
and cellular techniques to provide new biological insights that will contribute to the intellectual<br />
and physical well-being of society. Our training mission is to arm undergraduate, graduate, and<br />
postgraduate students with the necessary skills and tools to identify and solve modern biological<br />
problems at a molecular level; to instill and promote a life-time of scientific learning; and to<br />
communicate scientific advances to professional and lay audiences in a reasoned and<br />
responsible manner.<br />
Strategic Directions<br />
1. Create a world class research infrastructure that includes: building new state-of-the-art<br />
facilities; developing and recruiting faculty dedicated to research and training; and<br />
articulating interdisciplinary research themes with a molecular and cellular focus.<br />
2. Develop innovative undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate interdisciplinary<br />
curriculums that provide a foundation of core material for understanding how molecules<br />
and cells underlie function of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.<br />
3. Offer advanced disciplinary-specific training in Molecular and Cell Biology, Molecular<br />
Genetics, Molecular Virology, Microbial Pathogenesis, and Molecular Bioremediation<br />
and Toxicology<br />
4. Provide professional development programs that emphasizes scholarly training in<br />
written and oral communication and in Bioethics<br />
5. Develop and expand community outreach programs that further <strong>edu</strong>cate the public<br />
about the value and promise of non-targeted basic research that probes the molecular<br />
and cellular basis of our biological universe.

*Programs should be cross-disciplinary and involve in-depth study of biological problems at the level of the cellular and<br />
molecular sciences. The research training offered should encompass related disciplines, such as biochemistry,<br />
bioinformatics, biophysics, chemistry, cell biology, developmental biology, genetics, immunology, microbiology,<br />
molecular biology, molecular medicine, neurobiology, and pathology. These research opportunities should be available<br />
in the represented disciplines with faculty mentors from interacting departments and/or interdisciplinary Ph.D. programs.
DNA, development, and disease:<br />
Unraveling chromosome biology<br />
Wet hep eopleo fthe unitedst ates, inrd ertoo formam oreperf ectuni on*<br />
What happens when a code that provides information is broken, scrambled, or rearranged? The<br />
answer is simple: The message either doesn’t get conveyed, or gets misinterpreted.<br />
What if the message is critical for the development of the human embryo or the health and well-being<br />
of the adult?<br />
Our genetic blueprint, DNA, is packaged into discrete units called chromosomes. Chromosome<br />
biology seeks to understand how the chromosomes are organized and how they are passed from one<br />
generation to the next and also from one cell to another within an individual. This knowledge is critical<br />
because humans are prone to chromosome mistakes and these mistakes have deleterious<br />
consequences: At least 25% of all human pregnancies are chromosomally abnormal, and these<br />
abnormalities are the leading cause of mental retardation (e.g., Down syndrome) and miscarriage. In<br />
addition, chromosomes can break and, when they do, large amounts of genetic material may be lost or<br />
rearranged. Such breaks affect one in every 500 individuals and can lead to infertility, miscarriages,<br />
mental retardation and birth defects. Finally, chromosome abnormalities are involved in a number of<br />
human diseases like cancer. Thus, an understanding of chromosome biology provides a means of<br />
directly addressing a variety of heartbreaking human afflictions.<br />
The recent completion of the Human Genome Project has made it possible not only to begin to<br />
understand the genes in our genome, but also the structure of DNA and how it folds into<br />
chromosomes. Thus, the field of chromosome biology is emerging as a crucial discipline of the future.<br />
Nevertheless, only a handful of centers for the study of chromosomes currently exist throughout the<br />
world.<br />
WSU’s chromosome biology advantage<br />
WSU has a long-standing record of excellence in molecular genetic research, with internationally<br />
known investigators in areas of chromatin structure and DNA repair, regulation of gene expression,<br />
and reproductive genetics. However, until recently chromosome biology was not part of this “menu”.<br />
This changed with two separate recruitments, the first of which brought Dr. Lisa Shaffer from Baylor<br />
College of Medicine to WSU Spokane, and the second bringing Drs. Terry Hassold and Pat Hunt from<br />
Case Western Reserve <strong>University</strong> to WSU Pullman. This immediately elevated WSU to the forefront<br />
of chromosome biology research, as few – if any – other US academic institutions have three<br />
internationally recognized researchers working on human chromosome abnormalities. Capitalizing on<br />
this expertise will not only provide a new and unique training opportunity for students on both<br />
campuses, but will also provide an unparalleled research strength that will bring national attention to<br />
WSU.<br />
