REU Site in Cellular and Molecular Biology at Sanford Research and Augustana College

本科生（REU）网站的研究经验奖已作出桑福德研究/USD与奥古斯塔纳学院合作，为10名学生提供研究培训，在2013年至2015年的夏天10周。Augustana College REU细胞和分子生物学网站专注于细胞和分子生物学，假设驱动的项目包括通过表征大分子相互作用和蛋白质组学，基因组学和代谢组学变化在各种模式生物中的细胞信号事件的调查。REU学生将直接有助于对这些研究领域的理解。桑福德研究和奥古斯塔纳学院有19个研究导师与令人兴奋的，动手的项目，范围从神经科学到酵母生物学。每个项目都允许学生学习现代分子方法。学生还将通过参加职业发展研讨会获得宝贵的经验，这些研讨会涵盖研究中的专业诚信，研究生院申请过程，科学职业，GRE准备，增加研究多样性的重要性以及如何平衡家庭和职业。学生将在夏季开始时口头介绍他们的项目，在夏季结束时展示海报，并鼓励出席和参加国家会议。REU学生将接触到位于桑福德研究和奥古斯塔纳学院各个部门和核心之间的尖端设施和设备。招聘直接通过教师导师访问学生的机构和参加本科生会议，沿着电子邮件和社交媒体进行，目的是接触到通常不会接触到这样的机会的学生。学生的选择是基于学习成绩，职业道德，科学潜力，以及参与细胞和分子生物学研究的热情证据。项目完成后，将对校友进行调查，以衡量参与该项目对他们的学业成绩、科学兴趣和长期职业道路的影响。www.bioreu.org上的REU通用评估工具将用于评估项目影响。欲了解更多信息，请访问http：//www.sanfordresearch.org/education/undergraduates/spur/，或联系主要研究者（大卫皮尔斯博士，电子邮件：大卫.皮尔斯@ sanfordhealth.org）或共同主要研究者（Seasson Vitiello博士，电子邮件：Seasson. augie.edu）。

A Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Sites award has been made to Sanford Research/USD in collaboration with Augustana College to provide research training for 10 students, for 10 weeks during the summers of 2013-2015. The Augustana College REU Site in Cell and Molecular Biology focuses on cell and molecular biology, with hypothesis-driven projects that include investigation of cell signaling events via characterization of macromolecular interactions and proteomic, genomic, and metabolomic changes across a variety of model organisms. REU students will directly contribute to the understanding of these areas of research. Sanford Research and Augustana College have 19 research mentors with exciting, hands-on projects that range from neuroscience to yeast biology. Each project allows students to learn modern molecular methods. Students will also gain valuable experience by attending career development workshops that cover professional integrity in research, the graduate school application process, careers in science, GRE-preparation, the importance of increasing diversity in research, and how to balance family and career. Students will give an oral presentation of their project at the beginning of the summer, a poster presentation at the end of the summer, and are encouraged to present at and attend national meetings. REU students will be exposed to the cutting-edge facilities and equipment that are housed amongst the various departments and cores at Sanford Research and Augustana College. Recruitment is carried out directly via faculty mentor visits to the students' institutions and attendance at undergraduate conferences, along with email and social media, with an aim to reach out to students who would not usually be exposed to such an opportunity. Students are selected based upon academic record, work ethic, scientific potential, and evidence of enthusiasm for participating in cell and molecular biology research. Upon completion of the program, alumni are surveyed to measure the influence that participation in the program had on their academic performance, scientific interests, and long-term career path. The REU common assessment tool at www.bioreu.org will be used to evaluate program impacts.
