A REU site award has been made to the University of Notre Dame, Department of Biological Sciences to provide research training for 10 weeks for 12 students during summers 2013-2016. The program, "Integrative Cell and Molecular Biology", will provide students with independent research projects within an interdisciplinary research community. Participants will formulate their research project and proposal with their mentor, speak about their work at the beginning of the summer and present their results at the end of the summer at the Regional Summer Symposium. A weekly seminar program will be included to develop students' intellectual and professional skills, as well as to educate them about various career paths in biological sciences. In addition, students will attend interactive workshops on integrative research, ethics and responsible conduct of research, the publication process, scientific writing, and graduate school applications. The underlying aim of the program is to give students strong incentives for pursuing careers in research. Students will be recruited through general and targeted approaches with partner institutions. Underrepresented minority students and students who do not have access to research at their home institutions are encouraged to apply. Students will be selected based on academic record, the quality of the personal statement/cover letter, recommendation letters, a sincere desire to pursue a research career, and potential for outstanding research in cell/molecular biology. Participant tracking data will be obtained using a background, pre-program, post-program, and alumni survey. In addition, the BIO REU common assessment tool will be used. Continued contact with each participant will take place through planning for conference presentations, encouraging students to pursue additional research, and preparation for graduate school. More information and application materials are available at http://nd.edu/~biosreu/, or by contacting the PI (Dr. Michelle Whaley, [phone] , [e-mail]) or the co-PI (Dr. David Hyde, [phone], [e-mail]).

一个REU网站奖已作出圣母大学，生物科学系提供10周的研究培训，为12名学生在2013年至2016年夏季。该计划，“综合细胞和分子生物学”，将为学生提供跨学科研究社区内的独立研究项目。参与者将与他们的导师一起制定他们的研究项目和建议，在夏季开始时谈论他们的工作，并在夏季结束时在区域夏季研讨会上展示他们的成果。每周的研讨会计划将包括发展学生的智力和专业技能，以及教育他们在生物科学的各种职业道路。 此外，学生将参加关于综合研究，道德和负责任的研究行为，出版过程，科学写作和研究生院申请的互动研讨会。该计划的根本目的是为学生提供强大的激励，以追求研究事业。 学生将通过与伙伴机构的一般和有针对性的方法招募。鼓励代表性不足的少数民族学生和无法在本国机构进行研究的学生申请。学生将根据学习成绩，个人陈述/求职信的质量，推荐信，追求研究事业的真诚愿望，以及在细胞/分子生物学方面的杰出研究潜力进行选择。 参与者跟踪数据将使用背景，程序前，程序后和校友调查获得。 此外，将使用BIO REU通用评估工具。 与每个参与者的持续接触将通过规划会议演讲，鼓励学生进行更多的研究，并为研究生院做准备。 欲了解更多信息和申请材料，请登录http：nd.edu，或联系PI（Dr. Michelle Whaley，[phone]，[e-mail]）或共同PI（Dr.大卫海德，[phone]，[e-mail]）。
