biological problems, and the contributions that biologists can make on physical problems. The focus is on cross-disciplinary training. The program includes a week-long biophysics boot-camp, a biophysics seminar series, a research tools workshop, a professional development workshop, a journal club, off-campus field trips, and social activities. Program participants regularly present their research to, and hear about the research conducted by, their peers. By the end of the program, participants present

microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and computational methods to study materials and molecules at interfaces. All students will also take part in a professional development and ethics training program, with a focus on science communication and preparation for graduate school or industrial careers. Through independent research projects and the workshop and seminar series, this site seeks to broaden the participation in STEM. Preference will be given to applications received by March 1st. We strongly encourage

. Expansion of the program would include continuing to offer the program for all incoming first-year students and providing student teaching assistants for all sections. It would also involve investing in the professional development of instructors and TAs to emphasize the social justice outcomes associated with increased retention rates, particularly for historically marginalized students. By expanding the program, organizers hope to support the PLU community by connecting students to resources to

Foege became executive director of The Carter Center in 1986 and continues to serve the organization as a senior fellow. He has served on the PLU Board of Regents and received an honorary doctorate from PLU in 2000, when he was the university’s Commencement speaker. He helped shape the global-health work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and remains a champion of a wide array of issues, including child survival and development, injury prevention and preventative medicine.

Luckily, for current students, Brennan LaBrie ’21 and Armanda Dupont ’21, not even the pandemic could stop them from growing their skills in preparation for their graduation in May.  LaBrie is continuing his work in Port Townsend with the local paper The Leader. He began the job with an internship in summer 2019 and returned this summer with a promotion, as a

another. They asked, and Schroeder said come up with a proposal – a bracket, how long games would go, how teams would be organized, outreach to other classes to find out interest – all the trappings of organizing a basketball tournament. “It’s cool to see them take ownership of their school that way,” Edwards said. “They are taking a leadership role they haven’t taken before.” The students made a proposal and presented their idea to Schroeder, who approved it. Needless to say, Edwards has a little
