REU Site: Undergraduate Research in Molecular Genetics and Genomics

特拉华州立大学（DSU）将于2007年夏季开始在分子遗传学和基因组学方面为本科生开设一个研究经验网站。& 学生将与来自DSU，特拉华州技术社区学院（DTCC）和韦斯利学院的研究导师合作，参加为期9周的多学科夏季研究计划。& 学生将获得津贴，膳食，住房和往返实验室的旅费。利用来自DSU，DTCC，卫斯理学院和特拉华州生物技术研究所（DBI）的教师网络，每年夏天将有10名学生接受分子生物学和基因组学最先进技术的培训。活动将包括实验室技术和生物信息学，道德和沟通技能研讨会。将促进与学术界、政府和工业界各级研究人员的互动。学生将有机会通过与研究导师的互动来解决具体的研究问题，同时培养个人和与同学一起工作的能力。 REU计划将以学生研究研讨会结束，REU学生将展示海报，并向其他学生，教师，家人，朋友，高中生和教师展示他们的夏季研究。 有兴趣的学生请访问www.example.com申请REU计划，或联系项目主任Venu（Kal）Kalavacharla博士，电话302 - 857 - 6492或vkalavacharla@desu.edu。 或者，请联系亚历山德拉乌尔里希女士，招聘，部门。的AGNR，在（302）857 - 6410或aulrich@desu.edu。

AbstractDelaware State University (DSU) will host a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site in Molecular Genetics & Genomics beginning summer 2007. Students will work with research mentors from DSU, Delaware Technical & Community College (DTCC) and Wesley College in a 9-week multidisciplinary summer research program. Students will be provided stipends, meals, housing, and funds for travel to and from the lab. Using an established network of faculty from DSU, DTCC, Wesley College and the Delaware Biotechnology Institute (DBI), ten students will be trained each summer in state-of-the-art techniques in molecular biology and genomics. Activities will include workshops in lab techniques and bioinformatics, ethics, and communications skills. Interaction with various levels of researchers in academia, government, and industry will be fostered. Students will get the opportunity to work on specific research problems by interaction with the research mentors, while developing capabilities to work both individually and as part of a team with fellow students. The REU program will conclude with a Student Research Symposium where REU students will present posters, and showcase their summer research to other students, faculty, family, friends, high school students and teachers. Interested students are invited to visit http://cars.desu.edu/faculty/vkalavacharla/REU.html to apply to the REU program, or contact the Project Director, Dr. Venu (Kal) Kalavacharla at 302-857-6492 or vkalavacharla@desu.edu. Alternatively, please contact Ms. Alexandra Ulrich, Recruiter, Dept. of AGNR, at (302) 857-6410 or aulrich@desu.edu.
