The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) conference on Student Centered Education in the Molecular Life Sciences will be held on August 5-8, 2009 at Colorado College in Colorado Springs. This provides a unique opportunity for bioscience educators to attend a meeting devoted solely to improving their teaching, mentoring and research as it relates to undergraduate biochemistry and molecular biology (BMB) science education. The meeting involves participation of and support from a number of NSF- and foundation-funded groups including Project Kaleidoscope, POGIL, SMART Teams, and the Teagle Foundation to provide opportunities for dissemination of new pedagogies that have emerged in recent years. Goals of the meeting are two-fold: 1) to supply undergraduate educators with innovative, comprehensive approaches to teaching and research along with providing them with tools for implementation in their own work and 2) to provide them with networking and mentoring opportunities. No similar meeting has been organized in the field of BMB education for many years even though the value of quality education for undergraduates has been well recognized by national societies in various science disciplines within the past five to ten years. At this meeting, BMB educators can devote time exclusively to improving their teaching and research by adapting various successful models that will be presented and developing their own action plans. Plenary talks will frame strategically planned hands-on workshop/discussions sessions to provide successful models for involving undergraduate students inside and outside the classroom. Broader Impacts: A meeting designed specifically for diverse undergraduate professors is a broader impact in and of itself. The meeting will allow PUI faculty to link their teaching and scholarship in meaningful ways while also providing opportunities to expand their service work into the classroom by participating in Service Learning and other K-16 science activities. Results of the conference and the action plans will be presented in various forums including publication in ASBMB Today and in the journal Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education. Travel awards will be provided to the diverse graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty at PUI as well as minority serving institutions.

美国生物化学和分子生物学学会（ASBMB）关于以学生为中心的分子生命科学教育会议将于2009年8月5日至8日在科罗拉多斯普林斯的科罗拉多学院举行。这为生物科学教育工作者提供了一个独特的机会，参加一个专门致力于改善他们的教学，指导和研究的会议，因为它涉及到本科生物化学和分子生物学（BMB）科学教育。会议涉及一些NSF和基金会资助的团体的参与和支持，包括项目万花筒，POGIL，SMART团队和Teagle基金会，为近年来出现的新方法的传播提供机会。会议的目标有两个方面：1）为本科教育工作者提供创新，全面的教学和研究方法，沿着为他们提供在自己的工作中实施的工具，2）为他们提供网络和指导机会。尽管在过去的五到十年里，大学生素质教育的价值已经得到了各个科学学科的国家学会的认可，但多年来在BMB教育领域没有组织过类似的会议。在这次会议上，BMB教育工作者可以专门花时间通过调整将提出的各种成功模式和制定自己的行动计划来改善他们的教学和研究。全体会议将框架战略规划动手研讨会/讨论会，以提供成功的模式，让本科生参与课堂内外。更广泛的影响：专门为不同的本科教授设计的会议本身就具有更广泛的影响。会议将允许PUI教师以有意义的方式将他们的教学和奖学金联系起来，同时还提供机会，通过参与服务学习和其他K-16科学活动，将他们的服务工作扩展到课堂。会议的结果和行动计划将在各种论坛上发表，包括在ASBMB Today和Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education杂志上发表。旅行奖将提供给不同的研究生，博士后研究员，教师在PUI以及少数民族服务机构。
