This new REU site is a partnership between the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute and the Interdisciplinary Center for Applied Mathematics, both at Virginia Tech. The objective of the program is to provide a 10-week residential summer research experience for undergraduate students from around the U.S. including Puerto Rico, with the goal of increasing their desire and preparation to enter a Ph.D. program in mathematics or computational biology. The students are paired with mentors working on research projects focusing on mathematical models of biological networks, from the cellular to the organism and population scales. The two partner institutes provide a vibrant multi-disciplinary research environment, involving a broad range of the mathematical and life sciences. Special emphasis is placed on recruiting a diverse group of participants.

这个新的REU网站是弗吉尼亚生物信息学研究所和应用数学跨学科中心的合作伙伴，这两个中心都在弗吉尼亚理工大学。该项目的目标是为包括波多黎各在内的美国各地的本科生提供为期10周的暑期住宿研究体验，目的是增加他们进入数学或计算生物学博士项目的愿望和准备。这些学生与导师一起从事研究项目，重点是生物网络的数学模型，从细胞到生物体和种群规模。这两个合作研究所提供了一个充满活力的多学科研究环境，涉及广泛的数学和生命科学。特别强调招募不同的参与者群体。
