9732277 This REU Site at the University of Puerto Rico's Rio Piedras Campus aims to motivate talented Hispanic undergraduate students into research careers in the cellular and molecular fields of biology. Ten students will be selected each year based on their GPAs, research interests, motivation and potential for graduate careers. Students from small colleges and universities with little access to laboratory research will be preferentially selected. The 10-week summer program includes an intensive research experience in one of the laboratories of the faculty of the biology department. Students will be exposed to a wide range of research topics using cellular and molecular techniques to address a biological problem. Each student will be assigned a research project under the supervision of a mentor. A series of complementary activities including seminars, workshops, an ethics component, colloquia and social activities are included.

9732277这个位于波多黎各大学里奥皮德拉斯校区的REU网站旨在激励有才华的拉美裔本科生从事生物学细胞和分子领域的研究工作。每年将根据他们的GPA、研究兴趣、动机和毕业生就业潜力来挑选10名学生。来自实验室研究很少的小型学院和大学的学生将被优先录取。为期10周的暑期计划包括在生物系教职员工的一个实验室进行密集的研究体验。学生将接触到广泛的研究主题，使用细胞和分子技术来解决生物学问题。每个学生都将在导师的指导下被分配一个研究项目。还包括一系列补充活动，包括研讨会、讲习班、道德操守部分、座谈和社会活动。
