This REU Site award to the University of Colorado-Denver Anschutz Medical Campus and the Metropolitan State University of Denver, located in Denver and Aurora, CO, will support the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2024- 2026. 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, and many will present the results of their work at scientific conferences. A multi-faceted assessment of the program will evaluate skill acquisition, longitudinal tracking of career paths, and review of faculty participants through an online tool. The NSF ETAP system will be used to recruit participants.The REU Site in RNA and Genome Biology (REU-RGB) will provide a spectrum of research experiences across two campuses, including many departments. Research projects will include Transcriptional Regulation, Genome Replication, Post-transcriptional Regulatory Dynamics, Translational Programming, RNA Editing, Viral RNA Structure Function, and Noncoding RNA. Students will design and execute a research project, present in multiple forums, and train in research ethics/responsible conduct. Applicants will apply to the program through a national search using an online application asking for reference letters, transcripts, and statements demonstrating specific enthusiasm for the scientific enterprise. Holistic review of applications will lead to selection by faculty/senior trainee committee. All participants will be equipped with RNA/genome-specific bioscience skills training to enhance their performance in the REU Site program and beyond. REU-RGB will couple dynamic research experiences with multi-pronged career development and science communication. This holistic training approach will propel REU-RGB scholars toward career steps, including pursuing a Ph.D. in biological sciences while fostering an inclusive community.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.

这项授予科罗拉多大学丹佛分校Anschutz医疗校园的REU网站奖和位于丹佛和科罗拉多州丹佛市的大都会州立大学，将在2024年至2026年的夏季中为10周的10周培训10周的培训。预计总共有30名学生，主要来自有限的研究机会，该学生从研究机会有限地培训了一家人，该计划是从研究机会中培训的，该计划将在一家人中培训，或者是一家人，或者是由欧洲裔培训。学生将学习如何进行研究，许多人会在科学会议上介绍他们的工作结果。对该计划的多方面评估将评估技能获取，职业道路的纵向跟踪以及通过在线工具对教师参与者进行审查。 NSF ETAP系统将用于招募参与者。RNA和基因组生物学（REU-RGB）的REU站点将在包括许多部门在内的两个校园内提供各种研究经验。研究项目将包括转录调控，基因组复制，转录后调节动力学，翻译编程，RNA编辑，病毒RNA结构功能和非编码RNA。学生将设计和执行一个研究项目，在多个论坛中，并培训研究道德/负责任的行为。申请人将使用在线搜索使用在线申请申请该计划，询问参考信，成绩单和声明，表明对科学企业的特定热情。申请的整体审查将导致教职员工/高级培训委员会的选择。所有参与者都将配备RNA/基因组特异性生物科学技能培训，以提高其在REU站点计划及其他方面的表现。 REU-RGB将使动态的研究经验与多管齐的职业发展和科学传播相结合。这种整体培训方法将使REU-RGB学者迈向职业步骤，包括攻读博士学位。在培养包容性社区的同时，在生物科学中。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准来评估的。
