This REU Site award to the University of California San Francisco (UCSF), located in San Francisco, CA, will support the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2017- 2019. The focus of the UCSF REU program is the identification, recruitment and preparation of exceptional undergraduates for doctoral training in the Basic Sciences. Students undertake research in the fields of Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Genetics and Developmental Biology, along with graduate application preparation, and career and professional development programming. An experienced faculty committee selects students based on exceptional academic performance and keen interest in basic research, with a focus on students from disadvantaged backgrounds. It is anticipated that a total of 30 students, primarily from schools with limited research opportunities, will be trained in the program. Students will learn how research is conducted, and many will present the results of their work at scientific conferences. The vast majority of UCSF?s REU alumni pursue graduate education at institutions that are among the most highly competitive and demanding in the country, and every year several students join UCSF programs.A common web-based assessment tool used by all REU Site programs funded by the Division of Biological Infrastructure will be used to determine the effectiveness of the training program. Students will be tracked after the program in order to determine their career paths. Students will be asked to respond to an automatic email sent via the NSF reporting system. More information about the program is available by visiting http://graduate.ucsf.edu/srtp, or by contacting the PI (Dr. Carol Gross at [e-mail]) or the co-PI (Dr. Hana El-Samad at [e-mail]).

这个REU网站奖给加州旧金山弗朗西斯科大学（UCSF），位于加利福尼亚州旧金山弗朗西斯科，将支持10名学生在2017年至2019年的夏天10周的培训。UCSF REU计划的重点是识别，招聘和准备优秀的本科生进行基础科学博士培训。学生从事分子生物学，生物化学，遗传学和发育生物学领域的研究，沿着研究生申请准备，职业和专业发展规划。一个经验丰富的教师委员会根据学生的优异学习成绩和对基础研究的浓厚兴趣来选择学生，重点是来自弱势背景的学生。预计共有30名学生，主要来自研究机会有限的学校，将在该方案中接受培训。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。UCSF的绝大多数？的REU校友追求研究生教育的机构，是最具竞争力和要求在全国范围内，每年有几个学生加入UCSF programmes.A共同的基于网络的评估工具，由生物基础设施的司资助的所有REU网站程序将被用来确定培训计划的有效性。学生将在课程结束后进行跟踪，以确定他们的职业道路。学生将被要求通过NSF报告系统自动发送电子邮件。有关该计划的更多信息，请访问http：//graduate.ucsf.edu/srtp，或联系PI（Carol Gross博士，[e-mail]）或co-PI（Hana El-Samad博士，[e-mail]）。
