<p class="MsoNormal">The Development and Fundraising Committee is preparing an<b> </b>internal school database to facilitate collaborations, research effectiveness, and elevate the success rate for obtaining extramural research funds. When complete, the database
will be distributed to the faculty. Faculty members can then use it a resource to identify possible collaborations, gain access to specialized equipment, and seek advice in obtaining extramural funds. To this end, we request you respond to the following inquiries.
As an example, I have included my entries in red. Please email you responses to me (<a href="mailto:bfane@email.arizona.edu">bfane@email.arizona.edu</a>) by December 1.<o:p></o:p></p>
