Summer Research Experience REU/REV
The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis
(NIMBioS) at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, is now taking applications for an 8-week long summer research program for undergraduates (REU) and veterinary students (REV) interested in work at the interface between biology and mathematics. The program will take place June 7- July 30, 2010. Undergraduate majors in biology, math, and related fields will live on campus and work in teams with UTK faculty. Disease modeling, population dynamics, biodiversity and climate change are among this year’s research topics. Some teams will include veterinary students or high school teachers. Stipend and housing are provided, along with some funding for travel support.
