REU Site: Mountains and Minds: A Program in Chemical Biology

化学生物学是NSF REU项目的研究重点，该项目由蒙大拿州立大学化学和生物化学系和蒙大拿大学美洲原住民研究实验室(NARL)联合主办。参加这个REU项目的学生将在化学和生物的界面上进行前沿研究。项目的研究领域包括蛋白质组学、蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用、蛋白质-大分子相互作用、蛋白质-小分子相互作用、蛋白质结构-功能关系、酶学和小分子合成。学生将在NARL或密歇根州立大学的实验室工作，联合小组会议和仲夏研讨会将促进这两个地点之间的互动。特别鼓励美国原住民学生和蒙大拿州部落学院的学生申请，来自美国西北地区北部地区的小型学院的学生也是如此。欲了解更多信息和电子申请材料，请访问www.Chemistry.montana.edu/reu/。

Chemical biology is the research focus of the NSF REU program that is jointly hosted by the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Montana State University and by the Native American Research Laboratories (NARL) at the University of Montana. Students who participate in this REU program will perform frontier research at the interface of chemistry and biology. Projects are available in areas of research including proteomics, protein-protein interactions, protein-macromolecule interactions, protein-small molecule interactions, protein structure-function relationships, enzymology, and small molecule synthesis. Students will work either in the NARL or in labs at MSU, and joint group meetings and a mid-summer symposium will facilitate interactions between the two sites. Native American students and students from Montana's Tribal Colleges are especially encouraged to apply, as are students from small colleges within the upper Northwest region of the country. Additional information and electronic application materials are available at www.chemistry.montana.edu/reu/.
