This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).This REU Site award to Johns Hopkins University, located in Baltimore, MD, will support the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2022- 2024. It is anticipated that a total of 30 students, primarily from schools with limited research opportunities or from an under-represented group, will be trained in the program. Students will learn how research is conducted, how the results are dissemintated, and many will present the results of their work at scientific conferences. This program will provide a vital stepping stone to place disadvantaged students on scientific career paths in both the academic and commercial sectors. Assessment of the program will be facilitated through the online SALG URSSA tool, and students will be tracked after the program in order to determine their career paths.This REU site program focuses on the use of molecular and imaging techniques in obtaining important biological information. These techniques include a wide range of fluorescence and light microscopies, transmission electron microscopy, NMR spectroscopy, single molecule spectroscopy and myriad techniques incorporating high-throughput sequencing. Faculty from the Department of Biology, T.C. Jenkins Department of Biophysics, the Krieger Mind/Brain Institute and the Carnegie Institution Department of Embryology, pursue answers to biological questions at the forefront of their fields. Students are educated through direct involvement in laboratory experimentation that utilizes one or more of the techniques, and learn other projects thru oral and poster presentations by their fellow participants. Students also receive instruction on lab safety training, notebook keeping, responsible conduct in research, verbal and poster communication skills, and GRE preparation. More information about the program is available by visiting https://bio.jhu.edu/undergraduate/undergraduate-research/jhu-bioreu/, or by contacting the PI (Dr Vincent J Hilser at [e-mail]).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项是根据2021年《美国救援计划法》（公法117-2）的全部或部分资助的。该REU网站奖授予位于马里兰州巴尔的摩的约翰·霍普金斯大学，将在2022年至2024年的夏季中为10周的10周学生提供培训。预计总共有30名学生，他们将获得限量研究机会的30名学生。学生将学习如何进行研究，如何传播结果，许多人将在科学会议上介绍他们的工作结果。该计划将提供一块重要的垫脚石，使弱势学生在学术和商业领域的科学职业道路上。 该计划的评估将通过在线SALG URSSA工具来促进，并将在计划之后跟踪学生以确定其职业道路。该REU网站计划的重点是在获取重要的生物学信息中使用分子和成像技术。 这些技术包括广泛的荧光和光显微镜，透射电子显微镜，NMR光谱，单分子光谱和融合了高通量测序的无数技术。 T.C.生物学系的教师詹金斯生物物理学系，克里格（Krieger）思维/脑研究所和卡内基胚胎学院（Carnegie Institution of Embryology）在其领域的最前沿寻求回答生物学问题。通过直接参与实验室实验，对学生进行教育，该实验实验利用了一种或多种技术，并通过参与者通过口头和海报演示来学习其他项目。学生还接受有关实验室安全培训，笔记本保存，负责任的研究，口头和海报沟通技巧的负责任以及GRE准备的指导。 可以通过访问https://bio.jhu.edu/undrgraduate/undrgraduate-research/jhu-bioreu/或与PI联系（通过hilser@[e-mail]）来获得有关该计划的更多信息。该奖项反映了NSF的范围，并反映了NSF的Infortional Worther，该奖项是由NSF的Infortional Indortiant the Indernorial contiment and the the Inderniun the Inderial the Inderial the Inderial the Inderial the the Inderial the the the Indernotial，影响审查标准。
