The molecular engineering (ME) program at the Transromantic Interfaces and Coatings is accepting applications to fill two research positions for conducting research at the frontier of materials discovery, exploring the organic networks and frameworks with applications in carbon capture, carbon dioxide conversion, oxygen reduction, molecular separation, and ion sorption. This project is in line with two recently awarded grants from National Science Foundation proposing to develop a new approach to ME.
I am looking for responsible undergraduate students seeking research opportunities through UCARE. However, we will also accept hourly undergraduate and graduate students. The Project PAC (PI: Dr. Jessica Namkung, Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders) is aimed at identifying explicit links among cognitive (e.g., executive functions), language, and foundational math (e.g., number sense) processes that underlie pre-algebra competence for students with and without math learning difficulties.
Summer 22 UCARE slots only with Education Abroad Program.
The summer 2022 program will likely take place in two of Zambia’s nine provinces, Southern and Eastern, as Ethiopia is not currently on the State Department’s travel list.
The Ecological Approach to Family Style Dining (EAT Family Style) is an integrated (web-based + coaching) childhood obesity prevention program.
Purpose: To improve childcare providers’ use of responsive feeding practices and reduce controlling feeding practices with three-to five-year-old children in their care.
Advantages:
1. Improve your resume
2. Gain nutrition education and evaluation experience
3. Make a difference in your community
4. Learn about data collection methods on measuring young children’s dietary intake
The Interpersonal Violence Research lab is recruiting undergraduate students to assist in all aspects of various ongoing research studies. As a part of the IVR lab, students will be trained in the methodologically rigorous approaches to studying interpersonal violence and provided with the knowledge and skills to translate this research into meaningful intervention, prevention and policy efforts.
The laboratory of Dr. Jiujiu Yu in Department of Nutrition and Health Sciences at the University of Nebraska Lincoln is recruiting one undergraduate student and one part-time research technician to work on a research project that focuses on anti-inflammatory functions of dietary molecules. The research will involve cell culture, mouse models, and many state-of-the-art molecular and biochemical techniques. Previous laboratory research experience is preferred but not required.
