This REU Site award to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, located in Cold Spring Harbor, NY, will support the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2020- 2022. Research is conducted at the main campus in Cold Spring Harbor and at the Woodbury Genome Center in Woodbury, NY. It is anticipated that a total of 30 students, primarily from schools with limited research opportunities or are from an under-represented group, will be trained in the program. The program will provide students with research training and development of professional skills. Many of the students will present the results of their work at scientific conferences. Assessment of the program will be done thru the online SALG URSSA tool. Students will be tracked after the program in order to determine their career paths.The Bioinformatics and Computational Biology REU program at CSHL provides undergraduates with research training in genomics, computational neuroscience, and quantitative biology, and helps them develop their scientific identities. The students undertake a research project with a CSHL faculty mentor, and attend programming workshops and lectures in bioinformatics and computational neuroscience presented by CSHL’s faculty and program alumni. They also attend professional development workshops that educate them on research ethics and trains them in scientific communication. The summer culminates with a research symposium in which the students present their work to the CSHL community. Throughout the program students are provided with numerous opportunities in a collegial environment to network with CSHL scientists, and visiting scientists from the Meetings and Courses Program at CSHL. Guidance on career development is provided during and after the program. More information about the program is available by visiting https://www.cshl.edu/education/undergraduate-research-program/#nsf-reu, or by contacting the PI (Dr. Jesse Gillis at [e-mail]) or the co-PI (Dr. Christopher Hammell at [e-mail]).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网站奖给位于纽约州冷泉港的冷泉港实验室，将支持10名学生在2020年至2022年夏季进行为期10周的培训。研究在冷泉港的主校区和纽约伍德伯里的伍德伯里基因组中心进行。预计共有30名学生，主要来自研究机会有限的学校或来自代表性不足的群体，将在该方案中接受培训。该计划将为学生提供研究培训和专业技能的发展。许多学生将在科学会议上介绍他们的工作成果。该计划的评估将通过在线SALG URSSA工具完成。CSHL的生物信息学和计算生物学REU项目为本科生提供基因组学、计算神经科学和定量生物学方面的研究培训，并帮助他们发展自己的科学身份。学生与CSHL教师导师一起进行研究项目，并参加CSHL教师和计划校友提出的生物信息学和计算神经科学的编程研讨会和讲座。他们还参加专业发展讲习班，教育他们的研究道德和培训他们在科学传播。夏季的高潮是一个研究研讨会，学生们将他们的工作介绍给CSHL社区。在整个计划中，学生在大学环境中有许多机会与CSHL科学家建立联系，并从CSHL的会议和课程计划访问科学家。在课程期间和课程结束后提供职业发展指导。有关该计划的更多信息，请访问https：//www.cshl.edu/education/undergraduate-research-program/#nsf-reu，或联系PI（Jesse Gillis博士，[e-mail]）或co-PI（Christopher Hammell博士，[e-mail]）。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
