The Nebraska Center for Virology
is sponsoring its first ten-week Undergraduate Summer Research
Experience in Virology from June 2 to August 8, 2003. This
program is designed to provide an opportunity for undergraduate
students from other institutions to learn more about virology
and our graduate programs at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln.
Three students from Truman State University in Kirksville,
Missouri, were selected to work on research projects in different
UNL research labs this summer under the supervision of NCV
mentors. USREV, funded by the Nebraska Center for Virology,
provides room and board and a living allowance. In addition,
each student will earn three credit hours from Truman State
upon completion of their requirements which include a progress
report submitted to the UNL faculty mentor and to Dr. Scott
Ellis, Truman State USREV advisor, and a presentation of their
research results given at a local or regional scientific meeting.
This summer’s students include: Jennifer
Fuller, a junior Biology major; Abigail Smith, a sophomore
Biology major; and junior Biology major Heather Webb. Their
mentors (respectively) are: Dr. Asit Pattnaik, Dr. Charles
Wood, and Dr. Clinton Jones.
