Innovations in Biomaterials

该奖项为克莱姆森大学提供资金，用于支持在Karen J.布尔格博士指导下的为期三年的REU网站，该网站名为“生物材料创新”。这个为期十周的暑期项目每年将有八名学生参与干细胞技术和基于细胞的生物传感器等领域的前沿研究，与两名教师导师和一名研究生导师密切合作。该项目将从没有生物工程项目的其他机构招募广泛的学生，包括妇女和代表性不足的少数民族。 学生还将参加一系列涉及生物工程关键问题和主题的讲座和研讨会。

This award provides funding to Clemson University for the support of a three-year, REU Site entitled "Innovations in Biomaterials," under the direction of Dr. Karen J. Burg. This ten-week summer program will involve eight students annually in cutting edge research in areas including stem cell technology and cell-based biosensors, working closely with two faculty mentors and one graduate student mentor. A broad mix of students, including women and under-represented minorities, from other institutions without bioengineering programs will be recruited for the program. Students will also participate in a series of lectures and workshops involving critical issues and topics in bioengineering.
