Welcome to the ATP-Bio Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program, is a collaborative program between Texas A&M and the University of Minnesota (UMN), Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), University of California-Berkeley (UCB), University of California-Riverside (UCR), where students embark on a transformative 10-week journey at renowned institutions
In this immersive experience, REU students collaborate on cutting-edge ATP-Bio research projects under the guidance of dedicated faculty members and mentorship from graduate students or postdoctoral researchers.
Throughout the program, students delve into diverse areas such as technical literature analysis, computer-aided design, mathematical modeling, fabrication, experimental testing, and engaging in dynamic group discussions and project team meetings. Each student takes on an individual project with specific responsibilities and milestones. At the culmination of the program, students are accountable for delivering final reports, creating posters, and delivering presentations showcasing their research accomplishments.
The program aims to develop highly skilled professionals in the field of cryopreservation and biological system preservation. Core skills include exposure to emerging technologies, collaboration, safety, ethics, communication, and innovation. Join us in exploring the world of ATP-Bio research and witness the incredible journey of discovery and learning undertaken by our talented students!
