REU Site: Undergraduate Research in Integrative Evolutionary Biology

这个南卡罗来纳大学的REU网站专注于为本科生提供综合进化生物学的研究经验。该计划的目标是为对分子遗传学和生物体水平过程之间的交叉感兴趣的学生提供培训机会。学生在一名或多名教师导师的指导下，参与为期9周的独立研究项目，导师涵盖进化生物学的各个领域。学生学习假设生成和检验，以及在导师的实验室中使用的技术和实验设计。此外，一系列的讨论提供了关于如何进入研究生院并取得成功的信息。在暑期结束时，每个学生写一份他/她的工作总结，并在系里的小型研讨会上提交一份口头报告。之前的参与者来自不同的、代表性不足的群体，许多人在完成本科学位后进入研究生院学习。欲了解更多信息，请访问http://www.biol.sc.edu/~elygen/reu/evolution.html，或联系伯特·伊利博士，电子邮件：ely@sc.edu。

This University of South Carolina REU site focuses on providing undergraduates with a research experience in integrative evolutionary biology. The Program's objective is to provide training opportunities for students interested in the intersection between molecular genetics and organismal level processes. Students participate in 9-week independent research projects under the direction of one or more faculty mentors who span the range of areas in evolutionary biology. Students learn about hypothesis generation and testing as well as the techniques and experimental designs used in their mentors' laboratories. In addition, a series of discussions presents information about how to get into and be successful in graduate school. At the end of the summer, each student writes a summary of his/her work and presents an oral version in a departmental mini-symposium. Previous participants were from diverse and under-represented groups and many have gone on to graduate school after completing their undergraduate degree.
