[PhysioStudents] FW: Matching course students with EXROP Alums

[Marshall, Wallace]

Hey everyone,
     the MBL is going to be hosting twelve students from the EXROP program who will be visiting next week.   We've had a tradition of hosting EXROP students in our course, where the students hang out during the day with one or more of our students to see how we do things.   We wanted to see if anyone would be willing to volunteer to act as a host for one of the students, basically it would involve having a few meals with them and  letting them shadow you during the day on monday and tuesday.   Please let me know if you might be willing to host someone.

    Best regards,
                  Wallace

Subject: Matching course students with EXROP Alums

Hi Everyone,
As I mentioned Tuesday at lunch, we need your help.  Twelve EXROP (EXceptional Research Opportunities Program) alums will be coming to the MBL from July 19-22, 2015 to sample your courses. Can you match a student with each of the EXROP alums who wish to visit your course?    Please send the name of the course partners with contact information for our records.  Course partners will host the EXROP alums Monday and Tuesday for breakfast, lectures and laboratories and dinner on Tuesday (please share the attachment that includes an agenda with the students).  I encourage you to send an email of welcome to these alums prior to their visit.

EXROP is an HHMI funded program (www.hhmi.org/programs/exceptiona-research-opportunties-program<http://www.hhmi.org/programs/exceptiona-research-opportunties-program>).   Last year 9 EXROP alums visited the MBL and 3 are in courses this summer!  So this visit is a great way to recruit course applicants.

 The students, their choice of course to visit, and their bios are in the attached program.  I also list them below:


Biology of Parasitology

  *   Taylor Brown: 1st year woman in PhD program in Biosciences (Immunity, Microbes, and Molecular Pathogenesis Focus area) at UCLA
  *   Maureen Carey: 2nd  year woman in PhD program in Biomedical Sciences at University of Virginia

Microbial Diversity

  *   Karina Perlaza: 2nd year woman in PhD program in Tetrad program at UCSF
  *   Daisha Steadman: 2nd year woman in MS Biology program (Concentration: Molecular Genetics & Microbiology) and matriculating into PhD program in Teaching & Learning: Science Education at Georgia State University

Neurobiology

  *   Christine Liu: 2nd year woman in PhD in Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute at UC, Berkeley
  *   Krissy Lyon: 2nd year woman in Neuroscience Program at Harvard University

Neural Systems and Behavior

  *   Javier How: 1st year man in PhD program in Neuroscience at UCSD
  *   Elelbin Ortiz: 1st year woman in PhD program in Neuroscience at University of Pennsylvania
  *   Rebecca Senft: 1st year woman in PhD program in Neuroscience at Harvard University

Physiology

  *   Vivian Chen: 2nd year woman in PhD program in Biology at Stanford
  *   Kendall Condon: 1st  year woman in PhD program in Biology at MIT
  *   Juan Ruiz: 2nd year man in PhD program in Biomedical Sciences at NIH/Oxford

Thank you in advance for your help.
My best,
Steve
