Six West Virginia University faculty members and one graduate student were recently named recipients of Travis Stimeling Award for Mentoring Undergraduates in Research.
Formerly the Faculty Awards for Distinction in Mentoring Undergraduates in Research, the award was renamed this year in memory of Travis Stimeling, former professor of musicology in the College of Creative Arts, who passed away in November 2023. Stimeling was a recipient of the award in 2022 and was a passionate advocate of undergraduate research and providing students with research opportunities.
The National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) is dedicated to promoting undergraduate research, scholarship, and creative activity in all fields of study. NCUR will be taking place April 8 to 10, 2024 at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center in Long Beach, CA. West Virginia University will be sending five undergraduate student researchers to present their projects and advocate for undergraduate research.
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is thrilled to invite you to participate in the UNC Education Program of Intelligence and Connectomics (UNC-EPIC) intensive 5-day summer camp! Their program is designed to provide you with hands-on experience and mentorship in the analysis of connectome data, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical expertise. Participants will be introduced to advanced techniques in brain processing, analyzing, and visualizing structural and functional connectome data, all within the context of addressing real-world challenges in neuroscience and substance use.
This program is ideal for undergraduates, graduates, and postdocs eager to advance their expertise in neuroscience data analysis. Students from underrepresented minority groups in STEM are strongly encouraged to apply!
