This Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program is located at the Duke University Marine Laboratory (DUML), Piver's Island, NC. The award supports a three-year program that will provide eight student internships each summer for a 10-week research experience at DUML. The PI will recruit students nationally and at Elizabeth City State, Savannah State University (SSU) and the 34 schools (mainly non-PhD granting institutions) that are affiliated with the Marine Laboratory in the Marine Sciences Educational Consortium. Students will live in Marine Laboratory dormitories and take their meals in the dining hall. Students will have a choice of ten advisors in the general research areas of (1) sensory physiology and behavior, (2) environmental toxicology, (3) molecular biology and genetics, and (4) coastal and estuarine processes. Co-curricular activities include a Marine Laboratory-sponsored seminar program, participation in selected field trips and water related recreational activities. At the end of the summer, REU students present their results during a student research symposium, and they prepare a scientific manuscript on their research. Support provided by NSF includes funding for student stipends, student travel to and from the site, student housing and meals and some administrative costs.

本科生研究体验(REU)项目位于北卡罗来纳州皮弗岛的杜克大学海洋实验室(DUML)。该奖项支持一个为期三年的项目，该项目将在每年夏天提供8个学生实习机会，在Duml进行为期10周的研究体验。PI将在全国范围内以及在伊丽莎白城州立大学、萨凡纳州立大学和附属于海洋科学教育联盟海洋实验室的34所学校(主要是非授予博士学位的机构)招收学生。学生们将住在海洋实验室的宿舍，并在餐厅用餐。学生将在(1)感觉生理学和行为学，(2)环境毒理学，(3)分子生物学和遗传学，以及(4)海岸和河口过程的一般研究领域中选择10名顾问。联合课程活动包括海洋实验室赞助的研讨会计划、参加选定的实地考察活动和与水有关的康乐活动。在暑假结束时，REU的学生在学生研究研讨会上展示他们的研究成果，并准备一份关于他们研究的科学手稿。NSF提供的支持包括学生津贴、学生往返现场的旅费、学生住宿和餐饮以及一些行政费用。
