UBM-Institutional: BioMathletic TrainingAn interdisciplinary undergraduate research program in mathematical and statistical biology is planned at Ohio State University through a collaborative effort between the Departments of Mathematics, Statistics, and Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology. Research opportunities are also available in Computational Neuroscience & Cell Biology. The program will: (1) expose a broad group of students to research problems in the mathematical biosciences; (2) develop curricula to prepare students to pursue advanced study in interdisciplinary fields; and (3) facilitate participation of a cohort of undergraduates in an intensive and integrated research experience involving teams of students and faculty mentors. Beginning students will participate in a seminar course held during every academic quarter that exposes them to the broad area of mathematical biology; while more advanced students will participate in the program as Undergraduate Research Fellows (URFs). The URFs will participate in a mentored research experience during two or three academic years and the summer before their senior year. Each of the co-Principal Investigators associated with the individual research projects have active research programs. Many of the proposed activities will impact a broad group, ranging from students who participate only in the newly-developed interdisciplinary courses to those selected as URFs. The most profound impact of the proposal will be the production of a group of students who are aware of the opportunities available in research in the mathematical and statistical biosciences, who are prepared to enter into graduate study and careers in these areas, and who are motivated to continue working in interdisciplinary fields, in other words- the next generation of BioMath stars.

UBM-机构：生物数学训练一个跨学科的本科生研究计划，在数学和统计生物学计划在俄亥俄州州立大学通过数学，统计，进化，生态学和有机生物学部门之间的合作努力。研究机会也可在计算神经科学细胞生物学。该方案将：（1）让广大学生接触数学生物科学的研究问题;（2）发展课程，让学生为在跨学科领域进行深造作好准备;及（3）促进一批本科生参与由学生和教师导师组成的团队进行的密集和综合研究体验。开始的学生将参加在每个学术季度举行的研讨会课程，使他们接触到数学生物学的广泛领域;而更先进的学生将参加该计划作为本科研究员（URF）。URF将在两到三个学年和大四前的夏天参加指导性的研究体验。与各个研究项目相关的每个联合主要研究者都有活跃的研究项目。许多拟议的活动将影响广泛的群体，从只参加新开发的跨学科课程的学生到被选为统一报告格式的学生。该提案的最深远的影响将是一群学生的生产，他们意识到数学和统计生物科学研究中的机会，他们准备进入这些领域的研究生学习和职业生涯，并有动力继续在跨学科领域工作，换句话说-下一代BioMath明星。感兴趣的人员可联系PI Dr. Ian汉密尔顿：osu.edu和/或访问http://excelsior.biosci.ohio-state.edu/~eeob/drupal//? q=用户页/85
