July 23, 2009 Biology professors win coveted Murdock grants Turning over barnacle-encrusted rocks, one by one, craning your neck to catch a glimpse of a bird or sloshing through a muddy tributary might not seem like hard core scientific endeavors. But think again. It’s research such as this that gleaned three assistant professors of biology – Michael Behrens, Julie Smith and Jacob Egge – grants totaling more than $120,000. The support, provided by the Vancouver, Wash. based M.J. Murdock

University as part of a longer tour of U.S. schools hosted by Chinese “agent” EduKeys, sat at tables arranged in a rectangle, with all the Beijing students facing outward, expectantly. After a few key talks—including one from Professor David Huelsbeck on his time spent studying the Makah tribe of Neah Bay—a mass of PLU students was ushered in and seated across from the waiting students. During the exercise, the Lutes and the Chinese students exchanged ideas about how their cultures intersect, using

You’ll participate in research with one or more of our faculty, learn about careers in science and engineering, and see how scientists blend knowledge and skills from physics, chemistry and biology to investigate some of the most challenging problems in environmental sciences. We encourage applications from undergraduate students who are citizens or permanent residents of the U.S., especially attending universities other than Georgia Tech
