The REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) site program will provide early-career and underrepresented students with 10-week immersive research experiences in MBL faculty laboratories, focused on topics like neurobiology, cellular processes, physiology, and organism behavior. In addition to the lab research, students will participate in weekly seminars, field trips, and a final research symposium to prepare them for advanced degrees and careers in the biological sciences. This award reflects NSF's mission to advance scientific knowledge and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through supporting high-quality undergraduate training and research opportunities.
