The University of Minnesota (UMN) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) invites undergraduates to gain real-world experience in conducting original research through the NSF Engineering Research Center for Advanced Technologies for the Preservation of Biological Systems.
Program Description
Students come from all around the country to engage in exciting cutting edge research with the technology’s greatest experts in biopreservation and cryobiology! Students have a diverse range of majors, experiences, and interests. We hope that you will consider joining us this summer.
REU students will work in a university research lab on a project related to ATP-Bio’s science and technology along with a faculty advisor and graduate student mentor. Each student has a project of their own with specific responsibilities and deliverables. The program features professional and skill development opportunities, as well as social activities.

Applicants must be U.S. Citizens, U.S. Nationals, or permanent residents of the United States. NSF and ATP-Bio is particularly interested in increasing the numbers of women, underrepresented minorities, and persons with disabilities in research.
