Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)
The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking enthusiastic undergraduate students to apply to the agency’s premier Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program at the Boulder, CO and Gaithersburg, MD locations. Since 1993, SURF students from across the country have had the opportunity to gain valuable, hands-on experience, working with cutting edge technology in one of the world's leading research organizations and home to three Nobel Prize winners.
The mission of the SURF Program is to inspire undergraduate students to pursue careers in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) through a unique research experience that supports the NIST mission.
A research opportunity is available in the Office of New Drugs/Office of Drug Evaluation I, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), Food and Drug Administration (FDA) located in Silver Spring, Maryland. If you are interested please apply on www.zintellect.com under the advertisement number FDA-CDER-2019-0469. Additionally, please submit your CV to belay.tesfamariam@fda.hhs.gov
This project is a collaboration between the Office of New Drugs/CDER and the Office of Science and Engineering Laboratories/CDRH. The agency receives submissions on newly evolving bioresorbable polymer-based drug formulations for endovascular interventions, open vascular wraps, and hemodialysis access grafts. To better understand the suitability of bioresorbable polymers, a rapid assay will be developed to determine cytocompatibility of bioresorbable polymer formulated drugs. The proposed study will identify predictive biomarkers of biocompatibility that include prothrombotic factors, proinflammatory mediators, proadhesion molecules, and prooxidant species. The results of the proposed study will provide 1) a rational basis for the assessment of safety of polymer carriers and 2) requirements for biocompatibility testing.

The Robert F. Munn Library Scholars Award is presented annually to a graduating Honors student for outstanding research contributions in the humanities or social sciences that have culminated in the production of an exceptional thesis or capstone research paper.
The award will be presented during a ceremony held at the Downtown Campus Library. In addition, winners will be awarded $1,000. The Munn Award judges may select up to three winners.
