This REU Site award to Georgia Southern University (GSU), located in Statesboro, GA, will support the training of 8 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2018-2020. It is supported by the Divisions of Chemistry and Materials Research of the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate. Hosted by the Chemistry and Biochemistry Department at GSU, this program focuses on collaborative and multidisciplinary research projects that span the fields of analytical, materials, organic, biochemical, and computational chemistry. Participants work directly with faculty mentors on their respective research projects, gain the knowledge and tools for progression in STEM, build a community of professionals with peers and faculty, and grow in their perspective on the role of STEM in society. In addition to ten weeks of intensive research, students take part in educational, social, and professional development activities that support their sustained growth as scientists, including training in scientific communication and workshops on career preparation, leadership, and ethics.Research projects entail the design and characterization of magnetic materials; catalyst development; quantum chemical analyses for the detection of extrasolar planets; synthesis and investigation of novel organic sensors and molecular switches; development of analytical and biochemical techniques for toxicological assessment of common cosmetic ingredients; and novel approaches to cancer therapy. Research experiences are complemented by professional development activities that foster students' ability to effectively convey science to a variety of audiences, and provide the exposure, knowledge and tools to successfully navigate different stages of a STEM career. This includes hands-on training with instrumentation and resources commonly used by STEM professionals. Emphasis is placed on recruiting students from institutions with limited research opportunities, particularly women, minorities, and students from rural and underserved areas of the southeastern United States.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.

位于佐治亚州斯塔茨伯勒的佐治亚州南方大学(GSU)获得这一REU Site奖，将在2018-2020年夏季支持8名学生为期10周的培训。它得到了数学和物理科学局化学和材料研究部的支持。该项目由华盛顿州立大学化学和生物化学系主办，专注于跨分析、材料、有机、生化和计算化学领域的协作和多学科研究项目。学员在各自的研究项目中直接与教师导师合作，获得在STEM中取得进步的知识和工具，与同行和教职员工建立一个专业社区，并在他们对STEM在社会中的角色的看法上有所增长。除了十周的密集研究外，学生还将参加支持他们作为科学家持续成长的教育、社会和职业发展活动，包括科学交流培训和关于职业准备、领导力和伦理的研讨会。研究项目包括磁性材料的设计和表征；催化剂的开发；用于探测太阳系外行星的量子化学分析；新型有机传感器和分子开关的合成和研究；常见化妆品成分毒理评估的分析和生化技术的开发；以及癌症治疗的新方法。研究经验与专业发展活动相辅相成，培养学生向各种受众有效地传播科学的能力，并提供曝光、知识和工具，以成功地驾驭STEM职业生涯的不同阶段。这包括使用STEM专业人员常用的仪器和资源进行动手培训。重点是从研究机会有限的机构招收学生，特别是女性、少数族裔，以及来自美国东南部农村和服务不足地区的学生。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
