The Texas A&M University Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics REU Site will provide a research program for undergraduates during the summers of 2009-2013. Twelve students will be selected to participate in a 10-week research experience in biochemistry. The major goals of this program are to prepare students to pursue graduate training and careers in research, and to instill in those students an appreciation of the effort and satisfaction involved in this pursuit. Students will be trained in a diverse array of modern biochemical methods in a vibrant department, and will develop effective oral and written communication skills to describe their scientific projects. Recruiting efforts are focused on students who have completed their junior or sophomore year at colleges and universities in Texas and mid-Southern states, particularly those from institutions that do not offer doctoral degrees. Applications from students in underrepresented minority groups are particularly encouraged. Undergraduate participants will perform cutting-edge research in biochemistry while integrated into pre-existing laboratory groups of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, undergraduate students and technicians. At the conclusion of the program the students will present their research accomplishments in both written and oral reports.

德克萨斯农工大学生物化学和生物物理系REU网站将在2009-2013年夏季为本科生提供一个研究项目。12名学生将被选中参加为期10周的生物化学研究体验。该课程的主要目标是为学生进行研究生培训和从事研究工作做好准备，并向这些学生灌输对这一追求所涉及的努力和满足感的欣赏。学生将在一个充满活力的系中接受各种现代生化方法的培训，并将发展有效的口头和书面沟通技能来描述他们的科学项目。招生工作主要针对在德克萨斯州和中南部各州的学院和大学完成大三或大二学业的学生，特别是那些来自不提供博士学位的机构的学生。来自代表人数不足的少数群体的学生的申请尤其受到鼓励。本科生学员将进行生物化学方面的尖端研究，同时融入先前存在的由研究生、博士后研究员、本科生和技术人员组成的实验室小组。在项目结束时，学生将以书面和口头报告的形式介绍他们的研究成果。欲了解更多信息，请访问http://biochemistry.tamu.edu/?ch=reu，，或联系玛丽·布莱克，电子邮件：[e-mail]，或项目主管加里·昆克尔博士，电子邮件：g-kunkel@Tamu edu。
