The Research Scholar Award program is co-sponsored by CSUPERB and the Doris A. Howell Foundation for Women's Health Research.  The student scholarships support CSU undergraduate researchers in the field of women's health (defined quite broadly) during the 2016 spring academic term.  Research projects can be completed during the summer.  We encourage CSU faculty to identify students who show great promise academically and as research professionals.  CSUPERB knows that undergraduate research experiences are valued greatly by both life science industry employers and graduate programs.
 
CSUPERB welcomes and encourages applications from a wide range of disciplines, including but not limited to life sciences, physical sciences, clinical sciences, math, computer science, agricultural science and engineering.
 
Please forward this information to all faculty and students involved or interested in biotechnology education and research on your campus.
