The University of Wyoming (http://www.wyomingbioinformatics.org/SummerSchool/) is proud to offer summer research opportunities to external undergraduate students to engage in research in bioinformatics and computational molecular biology in Laramie. The summer research program will last from May 26, 2008 to August 4, 2008 and will include a stipend of $3500 for the period.
The summer 2007 program included students from Amherst College and Oberlin College.
Several labs that will host bioinformatics/computational molecular biology students include:
- Alex Buerkle: Statistical genetics and models of adaptation and speciation
- Mark Gomelsky: Statistical analysis of microarray data; microbiology
- Jan Kubelka: Protein folding
- David Liberles: Comparative genomics and molecular evolution
- Anne Sylvester: Comparative genomics of maize
- Christian Tellgren-Roth: Plant sequence analysis
- Naomi Ward: Metagenomics and Microbial Genomics
- Cynthia Weinig: Environmental Genetics and Adaptation in Plants
To apply, send a resume and statement of research interests to liberles@uwyo.edu, arrange to have 2 letters of recommendation sent directly by the letter writer to liberles@uwyo.edu, and arrange to have an official transcript sent to:
