The University of Wisconsin REU Site will provide a research program for undergraduates during the summers of 2009-2013. Eight students will be selected to participate in the 10-week summer program administered by the Department of Bacteriology. The goal is to provide an intensive, stimulating, and rewarding research experience in microbiology, molecular biology and related fields. The ultimate goal of the program is to attract talented undergraduates to careers in science. The emphasis is on students who will broaden the pool of under-represented minorities in science careers and those with limited opportunities for research at their home institutions. Participants will spend the majority of their time conducting independent research on a project in well-established and well-funded laboratories where state-of-the-art equipment and scientific approaches are utilized. In addition to research, a variety of educational, graduate school preparation, and social activities are planned so students get a rich, well-rounded and enjoyable summer experience. Students will publish a final report of their results, present their findings at a Special Symposium, and be encouraged to present their work at a regional, or even national scientific meeting. Students are provided a stipend, housing and meals, and travel to and from the lab.

威斯康星州REU网站的大学将在2009年至2013年夏季为本科生提供一个研究计划。八名学生将被选中参加由细菌学系管理的为期10周的暑期课程。目标是在微生物学、分子生物学及相关领域提供密集、刺激和有益的研究经验。该计划的最终目标是吸引有才华的本科生从事科学事业。重点是学生谁将扩大代表性不足的少数民族在科学事业和那些在他们的家乡机构的研究机会有限的池。参与者将把大部分时间花在一个项目上进行独立研究，在成熟和资金充足的实验室中使用最先进的设备和科学方法。除了研究，各种教育，研究生院的准备，和社会活动的计划，使学生得到一个丰富的，全面的和愉快的夏季体验。学生将发表他们的研究结果的最终报告，在一个特别研讨会上介绍他们的研究结果，并鼓励他们在一个区域，甚至国家科学会议上介绍他们的工作。学生提供助学金，住房和膳食，以及往返实验室的旅费。更多信息可在http：//www.bact.wisc.edu/reu.php或项目主任罗宾·库尔茨博士（608）263-1781，电子邮件地址[e-mail]获得。
