The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis
(NIMBioS) is now taking applications for its eight-week long Summer
Research Experiences for Undergraduates and Teachers (SRE). The program
will be held June 6 - July 29, 2016, on the University of Tennessee,
Knoxville, campus. Undergraduate majors in biology, math, and related
fields, as well as high school teachers in biology and mathematics, will
live on campus and work in teams with UT professors, NIMBioS
researchers, and collaborators to conduct research. This year's
research topics include human emotion modeling, spread of mice
and hantavirus, molecular dynamics simulations, organelle movements in
plant cells, and development of computer games for teaching
biology. Stipend and housing are provided along with some funding for
travel.
