Interdisciplinary
Training for Undergraduates in Biological and Mathematical Sciences at
ASU This
NSF funded
training program intimately
combines ongoing research projects, new cross-disciplinary courses and
summer research programs. The courses are constructed to allow maximal
participation among undergraduate cadres, and facilitate life science
majors to achieve a minor in mathematics, and, likewise, mathematics
majors to enrich their education with a minor in bioscience. The summer
research program is a competitive enterprise involving many faculty
members from life sciences, mathematics, and biophysics. Research
projects span modeling of ecological and evolutionary processes through
the new lens of stoichiometric constraints, bio-economics, chemostat
theory, and modeling of visual perception.
