November 13, 2002

Rutgers University was awarded more than $11 million in new federal grants, allowing it to continue AIDS-related studies, including the possible creation of more effective drugs, Joseph J. Seneca, Rutgers vice president for academic affairs, announced yesterday. A unit of the National Institutes of Health awarded $6.5 million for developing technology that can determine the three-dimensional shape of proteins, a key to determining their function. Another grant, for more than $4.6 million, will aid research on drugs that might block the spread of HIV in the body.
