BCMB Department at UT-Knoxville offering REU this summer

The Department of Biochemistry and Cellular Molecular Biology at UT-Knoxville will once again offer a special REU program for undergraduates interested in hands-on scientific research experience.  The broad focus is on Sensing and Signaling in Biological System.  The team of REU faculty represent multiple modern scientific disciplines including cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, physical chemistry, and computational biology.  We especially encourage rising sophomores and rising junior undergraduate science majors to apply.  Underrepresented minorities, women and first generation college students are also strongly encouraged to apply.  Applicants must be a US citizen or a permanent resident.   More information and on-line applications are available at our web site at:  http://web.bio.utk.edu/bcmb/smmer/reu.html or email bcmbreu@utk.edu.
