The University of Nevada, Reno will provide a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site award through September 2026 totaling $209,358 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering Education and Centers program (CFDA 47.041). Over three years, the REU Site will engage eight undergraduate students annually for 10 weeks to conduct research projects in biosensing. Students will gain experience designing, developing, and characterizing biosensors incorporating molecular or nanoscale signal transducers. They will apply biosensors to address challenges in human health, agriculture, and the environment. The program aims to recruit underrepresented groups and prepare future leaders in biosensing research and development fields. Outcomes will be disseminated to attract more students to STEM and grow the biosensing workforce. This award reflects NSF's mission to support merit-reviewed projects in engineering that improve life and economic strength.
