Synopsis
The American Society for Microbiology is now accepting applications for both its Undergraduate and Minority Undergraduate Research Programs.  These fellowships encourage students to pursue careers in the biological and microbiological sciences by offering opportunities to participate in research projects and to present their results at regional or national meetings.

Applicants are for well-qualified students interested in pursuing graduate careers.

Undergraduate Research Fellows will work at their home institution in collaboration with an American Society for Microbiology faculty mentor. The program requires a joint application from both the student and their corresponding faculty mentor.  An application and additional information are available online: www.asm.org/Education/index.asp?bid=4322 .

Minority Undergraduate Research Fellows will work either through a New York School of Medicine organized program or individual laboratories nationwide.  Applicants should be Black/African American, Mexican American, Native American, Puerto Rican, Alaskan Native American, or Pacific Islander and be a U.S. citizen or hold permanent visa status.
