Summer Fellowships for US undergraduates
Dear all: Below I have forwarded some information about a summer fellowship that is available to undergraduates interested in biology and computers - they MUST be US citizens or permanent residents. I would very much appreciate your help in soliciting good students for this summer. Please feel free to pass this on and to pass recommendations on to me. Thanks very much for your help. Dave The Biomedical Informatics Group at DePaul has a summer undergraduate research project in Bioinformatics and Grid computing. This group co-sponsors paid summer fellowships with the Illinois Bio-Grid, Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago. The program will last for 10 weeks and will be conducted on-site in Chicago. Grid computing is a new field that utilizes geographically separated commodity computers as a virtual supercomputer. Students will have access to thousands of computers at the advanced computational facilities at Argonne National Laboratory and the Illinois Bio-Grid. Bioinformatics is a relatively new field of biological research involving computation. Areas include human genome research, simulations of biological and biochemical processes (such as cell membranes), and proteomics (e.g., protein folding simulations). This project will provide free summer housing and will pay $420 per week. More information on the project for Bioinformatics and Grid computing are available at http://reu.cti.depaul.edu or by contacting Dave Angulo at dangulo@cti.depaul.edu David S.
