This award by the Chemistry Division supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Kentucky for the summers of 2006-2008. The program director is Dennis Clouthier. Ten students each year will do research in the broad areas of chemistry and biochemistry. The students will interact daily with the graduate students, postdoctoral students, and faculty and be exposed to all aspects of a modern university research environment. The primary activity will be laboratory research, but enrichment activities including weekly seminars, social activities, written and oral research reports, research conference presentations, and attendance at our annual poster session are planned as an integral part of the experience. A strong effort will be made to provide a sense of belonging in the research groups. This REU Site program is aimed primarily at students from the Appalachian region, as these students are underrepresented in science disciplines and their undergraduate institutions often do not have the infrastructure to support research programs. This REU site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program

这项由化学部颁发的奖项支持肯塔基大学2006-2008年夏季的本科生研究体验(REU)网站。该项目的负责人是丹尼斯·克劳蒂耶。每年将有10名学生在化学和生物化学的广泛领域进行研究。学生们将每天与研究生、博士后和教职员工互动，并接触到现代大学研究环境的方方面面。主要活动将是实验室研究，但丰富活动包括每周研讨会、社会活动、书面和口头研究报告、研究会议报告和参加我们的年度海报会议，都是经验中不可或缺的一部分。将作出强有力的努力，在研究小组中提供归属感。REU Site项目主要面向来自阿巴拉契亚地区的学生，因为这些学生在科学学科中的代表性不足，而且他们的本科院校往往没有支持研究项目的基础设施。该REU网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作提供支持
