The National Science Foundation Division of Engineering Education and Centers awarded The University of Kentucky Research Foundation $557,997 on July 15, 2026, to establish a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site focused on engineered bioactive interfaces and devices, with performance through June 30, 2029, under the Engineering assistance program (CFDA 47.041). The REU site will provide multidisciplinary research and education experiences for rising sophomore, junior, and senior undergraduates from engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics disciplines. Students will conduct collaborative, cross-disciplinary research on the novel design of architectures that interact with biological systems, with applications in tissue engineering, sensing systems, and drug delivery. The program targets recruitment from regional colleges and universities surrounding the University of Kentucky that lack graduate programs in these disciplines, aiming to encourage students who might not otherwise pursue advanced degrees. Students will work alongside faculty and graduate students engaged in existing collaborative research efforts, participate in seminars and workshops, and gain practical knowledge of graduate research expectations. Performance takes place in Lexington, Kentucky.
