The National Science Foundation will fund Kurt Regner and Eduardo Robleto's (Life Sciences) proposal, REU SITE: Mechanisms of Evolution (DBI 1757316 - $333,830). REU Sites offer paid summer undergraduate research internships supplemented with workshops on careers in science. The overarching goal of this proposal is to engage undergraduates with hypothesis-based research projects that examine one or more mechanisms of evolution. Since 2007, the REU program has sponsored 110 undergraduates with a cumulative award total of $1.65 million.
