This REU Site award to Princeton University will support the training of 10 students for 9 weeks at the Princeton, NJ, campus during summers of 2017-2019, and 10 students for 10 weeks at the Czech Academy of Sciences in Nové Hrady, Czech Republic, during summers of 2018-2020. The award is supported by the Divisions of Biological Infrastructure (BIO) and Chemistry (MPS), and the Office of International Science and Engineering. The program offers cross-disciplinary research experience in biology to students with backgrounds in chemistry, engineering, computer science, mathematics, or physics. Freshmen and sophomores from colleges with limited research opportunities including community colleges are encouraged to apply. Students in or beyond their third undergraduate year are not the program's priority, and those majoring in biology should strongly justify how their background in physical or mathematical sciences prepares them for the program. Student interests are matched to available research projects of participating faculty mentors. Regular lunch meetings explore topics including scientific ethics, presentation skills, and career opportunities. Participants prepare a written report on their research in the style of a journal manuscript, and present an oral summary in a final symposium. Participants who complete a summer's research in biophysics at Princeton or at similar REU programs are eligible for the research experience in the Czech Republic. Participants are trained in molecular and computational biophysics, and sometimes continue computational research projects at their home institutions. A total of 60 students, primarily from schools with limited research opportunities, will be supported in the program. Students will learn how research is conducted, and many will present the results of their work at scientific conferences. Travel, housing, and stipend are provided by the program.A common web-based assessment tool used by all REU Site programs funded by the Division of Biological Infrastructure is used to determine the effectiveness of the training program. Students are tracked after the program to determine their career paths and asked to respond to an automatic email sent via the NSF reporting system. More information and applications are available at http://chemists.princeton.edu/reumolbiophysics/ or from the program assistant (Kuri Chacko [e-mail]), the Program Director (Professor Jannette Carey [e-mail]), or the co-Director (Dr. Istvan Pelczer [e-mail]).

这个REU网站奖给普林斯顿大学将支持10名学生在普林斯顿，新泽西州，校园在2017年至2019年的夏天9周的培训，和10名学生在捷克共和国新赫拉迪的捷克科学院10周，在2018年至2020年的夏天。该奖项由生物基础设施（BIO）和化学（MPS）部门以及国际科学与工程办公室支持。该计划为具有化学，工程，计算机科学，数学或物理背景的学生提供生物学跨学科研究经验。鼓励来自研究机会有限的学院（包括社区学院）的大一新生和二年级学生申请。学生在或超过他们的第三个本科年不是该计划的优先事项，那些主修生物学的学生应该强烈证明他们的物理或数学科学背景如何为他们准备该计划。学生的兴趣与参与教师导师的可用研究项目相匹配。定期午餐会探讨的主题包括科学道德，演讲技巧和职业机会。参与者以期刊手稿的形式准备一份关于他们研究的书面报告，并在最后的研讨会上提出口头总结。在普林斯顿大学或类似的REU项目完成生物物理学夏季研究的参与者有资格获得捷克共和国的研究经验。参与者接受分子和计算生物物理学方面的培训，有时在其所在机构继续进行计算研究项目。共有60名学生，主要来自研究机会有限的学校，将在该计划的支持。学生将学习如何进行研究，许多人将在科学会议上展示他们的工作成果。旅行，住房和津贴由该计划提供。一个共同的基于网络的评估工具，由生物基础设施司资助的所有REU网站程序用于确定培训计划的有效性。学生在课程结束后被跟踪，以确定他们的职业道路，并被要求回复通过NSF报告系统发送的自动电子邮件。更多信息和应用程序可在http://chemists.princeton.edu/reumolbiophysics/或从程序助理（库里Chacko [e-mail]），程序主任（Jannette Carey教授[e-mail]），或联合主任（Istvan Pelczer博士[e-mail]）。
