Research Experience for Undergraduates in Molecular Biosciences

这个为期三年的项目将支持本科生参与分子生物科学研究项目。 亚利桑那大学 (UA) 的本科生和其他机构的美国原住民学生将获得支持。 这些学生都将成为 UBRP 的一部分，这是一个旨在让本科生参与生物学相关研究的大型项目。 学生申请该项目，旨在让本科生参与生物学相关的研究。 学生申请该项目，一旦被教师/学生委员会选中，就可以选择与 204 名教师资助者中的任何一个合作，其中 65 名教师从事分子生物科学研究。 一旦被选中，学生就会与未来的教员赞助商进行面谈，以确定他们将在哪里工作。 这确保了学生从事他们​​感兴趣的项目，并在学生、教师和实验室团队之间培养富有成效的工作关系。 除了研究之外，学生还参加实验室会议和研讨会。 他们接受的培训涵盖实验室和辐射安全培训、动物护理和使用以及研究伦理。 此外，该计划还赞助可选的实地考察、实验室参观和社交活动。 所有学生都会收到每月时事通讯。 有一个年度会议，学生们在会上以海报的形式展示他们的实验结果，而那些被接受在科学会议上展示其作品的学生将获得参加会议的旅费。

This three year project will support undergraduates involved in research projects in molecular biosciences. University of Arizona (UA) undergraduates and Native American students from other institutions will receive support. These students will all be part of UBRP, a large program designed to involve undergraduates in biologically related research. Students apply to the program designed to involve undergraduates in biologically related research. Students apply to the program and once selected by a faculty/student committee, can choose to work with any of 204 faculty sponsors, 65 of whom conduct research in molecular biosciences. Once selected, students interview prospective faculty sponsors to determine where they will work. This insures that students work on a project that is of interest to them and fosters a productive working relationship among the students, faculty and lab groups. In addition to the research, students participate in lab meetings and seminars. They receive an orientation that covers laboratory and radiation safety training, animal care and use, and research ethics. In addition, the program sponsors optional field trips, lab tours, and social events. All students receive a monthly newsletter. There is an annual conference at which students present their experimental results in poster form and students who have their work accepted for presentation at scientific conferences receive travel funds to attend.
