项目摘要

This REU Site award to the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory located in Gothic, CO, will support the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2018-2022. Resesarch is conducted throughout the Gunnison Basin. The theme of the program is the Ecology of Place, or using a deep understanding of a place to generate general scientific insights. Students design and implement a field research program and present results orally and in writing at the end of the summer. Students also participate in professional development opportunities throughout the summer, such as discussions of scientific and non-academic careers, as well as responsible conduct of research topics such as sexual harassment and the ethics of research. The program recruit students nationally, building on established collaborative relationships with the Los Angeles community colleges. Students apply online, and submit essays and letters of reference. Students for whom the program will have a large impact, including students who would be unable to participate in summer research without financial support, are encouraged to apply.It is anticipated that a total of 50 students primarily from schools with limited research opportunities, will be trained in the program over five years. The goal is that 70% of the participants will be minority students and at least 35% of the students will have a community college background. Students will learn how research is conducted, many will present the results of their work at scientific conferences. Approximately one-third of the students will publish results in scientific journals.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 as well as RMBL surveys. More information about the program is available by visiting rmbl.org/education , or by contacting the PI (Dr. Ian Billick, director@rmbl.org) or the co-PI (Dr. Jennifer Reithel at sd@rmbl.org).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个REU网站奖位于哥特式的落基山生物实验室，CO，将支持10名学生在2018年至2022年的夏天10周的培训。研究在整个甘尼森盆地进行。该计划的主题是地方生态学，或使用对一个地方的深刻理解来产生一般的科学见解。学生设计和实施实地研究计划，并在夏季结束时口头和书面提出结果。学生还参加整个夏天的专业发展机会，如科学和非学术职业的讨论，以及研究课题的负责任的行为，如性骚扰和研究的道德。该项目在全国范围内招生，建立在与洛杉矶社区学院建立的合作关系的基础上。学生在网上申请，并提交论文和推荐信。我们鼓励对该项目产生重大影响的学生，包括没有经济支持无法参加夏季研究的学生，提出申请。预计将在五年内培养50名学生，主要来自研究机会有限的学校。目标是70%的参与者将是少数民族学生，至少35%的学生将有社区大学背景。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。大约三分之一的学生将在科学期刊上发表结果。由生物基础设施司资助的所有REU网站项目使用的一种基于网络的通用评估工具将用于确定培训项目的有效性。学生将在课程结束后进行跟踪，以确定他们的职业道路。学生将被要求回答通过NSF报告系统以及RMBL调查发送的自动电子邮件。有关该计划的更多信息，请访问rmbl.org/education，或联系PI（Ian Billick博士，director@rmbl.org）或co-PI（Jennifer Reithel博士，sd@rmbl.org）。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
