This award provides funding to Duke University for a five-year REU Site Program for Increasing Diversity at Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering, under the direction of Ms. Martha Absher. This nine-week summer program will provide in-depth research opportunities for 8 women, underrepresented minorities, and disabled undergraduate students in projects covering a wide range of topics including diagnostics and biomaterials, medical imaging, cochlear implants and drug transport in solid tumors. The REU Fellows will work closely with a Pratt researcher and/or graduate studentmentor on individual research projects especially designed for them in laboratories on the Duke campus.

该奖项为杜克大学提供资金，用于在杜克大学普拉特工程学院开展为期五年的REU现场项目，以增加Martha Absher女士指导下的多样性。 这个为期九周的暑期课程将为8名女性，代表性不足的少数民族和残疾本科生提供深入研究的机会，项目涵盖广泛的主题，包括诊断和生物材料，医学成像，人工耳蜗植入和固体肿瘤中的药物运输。 REU研究员将与普拉特研究员和/或研究生导师密切合作，在杜克校园的实验室中进行专门为他们设计的个人研究项目。
