REU Site: Program in Nanotechnology for Biology and Bioengineering

该奖项由约翰霍普金斯大学生物基础设施部（BIO/DBI）董事会，工程部工程教育和中心（ENG/EEC）董事会以及数学和物理科学部化学部（MPS/CHE）董事会支持。该项目设在纳米生物技术研究所内，将在2011- 2013年夏季为10名学生提供为期10周的研究培训。总体目标是为REU学生提供独特的教育体验，以研究为核心，同时作为未来研究生工作的理想基础。学生将在参与部门的实验室工作;化学工程，材料科学工程，生物工程，生物，化学或物理。INBT有大约20名教师导师参加了该计划。有一个广泛的有趣和令人兴奋的项目为学生。预计学生将做全职实验室研究，以及参加研讨会和各种研讨会，如研究，专业发展，行业和学术界的职业研讨会的负责任的行为，以及研究生院申请过程的概述。REU的学生可以使用个别导师的设施以及许多跨部门的实验室和中心的核心设施，如显微镜，细胞和组织工程等。学生的选择是基于学习成绩，研究表现，以及在生物工程或相关领域的杰出研究潜力。学生被跟踪，以确定他们对学习的学术领域的持续兴趣，他们的职业道路，以及研究经验的持久影响。有关该计划的信息将通过各种手段进行评估，包括使用REU通用评估工具。欲了解更多信息，请访问http：//inbt.jhu.edu/education/undergraduate/reu/，或联系PI（Denis维尔茨博士，wirtz@jhu.edu）或REU项目经理（Ashanti Edwards女士，aedwards@jhu.edu）。

This award made to the Johns Hopkins University is supported by the Directorate for Biological Sciences' Division of Biological Infrastructure (BIO/DBI), the Directorate for Engineering's Engineering Education and Centers (ENG/EEC), and the Directorate for Mathematics and Physical Sciences' Division of Chemistry (MPS/CHE). This project, housed within the Institute for NanoBioTechnology (INBT), will provide research training for 10 students for 10 weeks, during the summers of 2011- 2013. The overall goal is to give REU students a unique educational experience, with research at the core while at the same time serving as an ideal foundation for future graduate work. Students will work in labs located within the participating departments; chemical engineering, materials science engineering, bioengineering, biology, chemistry, or physics. INBT has about 20 faculty mentors participating in the program. There is a wide range of interesting and exciting projects for the students. Students are expected to do full-time lab research as well as participate in seminars and various workshops, such as the responsible conduct of research, professional development, career workshops for industry and academia, and an overview of the graduate school application process. REU students have access to individual mentor's facilities as well as many interdepartmental labs and centers with core facilities such as microscopy, cell and tissue engineering, and others. Students are selected based on academic record, research performance, and potential for outstanding research in bioengineering or related fields. Students are tracked to determine their continued interest in their academic field of study, their career paths, and the lasting influences of the research experience. Information about the program will be assessed by various means, including use of an REU common assessment tool.
