Summary
BOOTHBAY HARBOR - For the next four weeks, college students in Maine and throughout the U.S. are invited to apply for the National Science Foundation's Gulf of Maine and the World Ocean Research Experience for Undergraduates Program in its inaugural year at Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences in West Boothbay Harbor. The laboratory is the latest site in Maine to be selected for this nationwide program, designed to support active participation by undergraduates in direct research.
Eight students will be chosen to work with senior scientists to conduct independent research on topics that include: the chemistry of climate change, environmental biology of marine phytoplankton, bacteria and viruses, genome evolution in algae, and the ecology and physiology of marine invertebrates. Co-directed by Bigelow senior research scientists Drs. Rick Wahle and David Fields, the program will run from June 7 through Aug. 15 and will give students experience with state-of-the-art research methods and technologies.See the full content of this document
