This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $389,998 to the University of North Dakota (UND) from February 2024 to January 2027. The project, titled "BIORETS: GENES & THE ENVIRONMENT: RESEARCH EXPERIENCES FOR TEACHERS FROM RURAL & TRIBAL SCHOOLS", will support research experiences for 24 secondary teachers from rural and tribal schools in the Northern Great Plains region over three annual cohorts. The teachers will participate in a 6-week intensive research experience in environmental biology and gene regulation, followed by 2 weeks of curriculum development. They will then implement the new curricula in their classrooms and receive ongoing support from the project team. The goals are to increase rural and tribal students' exposure to molecular biology and scientific research, and to address disparities in STEM education access. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
