REU: Research Experience for Undergraduates in Chemical Biology at Purdue University

该化学部奖支持普渡大学2004-2006年夏季的本科生研究经验（REU）网站。 导演是Mark A。利普顿，他是由共同PI让A。Chmielewski 9名学生将参加为期10周的课程。 化学专业，特别是女性和代表性不足的少数民族，将从不提供研究机会的学院和大学招募。 来自化学和药物化学分子药理学系的教师将指导分子生物学多学科领域的研究。 研究课题包括：设计小分子以与酶、激素受体、生物转运蛋白、脂质膜或核酸相互作用;药物递送;以及对疾病状态的化学理解。 每周的培训课程，辅导和研究报告将举行，以增加学生对化学生物学跨学科领域的理解。 该计划的形成性和总结性评估将采用定量和定性技术进行。

This Chemistry Division award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Purdue University for the summers of 2004-2006. The program director is Mark A. Lipton who is assisted by co-PI Jean A. Chmielewski. Nine students will participate in a ten-week program. Chemistry majors, especially women and underrepresented minorities, will be recruited from colleges and universities that do not provide opportunities for research. Faculty from the Departments of Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry & Molecular Pharmacology will direct the research in the multidisciplinary area of molecular biology. Research topics include: design of small molecules to interact with enzymes, hormone receptors, biological transporters, lipid membranes or nucleic acids; drug delivery; and chemical understanding of disease states. Weekly training sessions, tutorials and research presentations will be held to increase the students' understanding of the interdisciplinary area of chemical biology. Formative and summative evaluation of the program will be undertaken using quantitative and qualitative techniques.
