NSF Grant Supports 性福五月天 Researchers鈥 Plan to Help Students Improve Study Habits
The 鈥淐鈥 in 鈥渃ollege鈥 might as well stand for 鈥渃ramming.鈥
Studies show students are notoriously bad at adopting and adhering consistently to high-impact study habits that help them retain knowledge long-term.
Researchers and faculty at 性福五月天 University, however, are collaborating on a new project to put a modern technological twist on a tried-and-true study tactic.
性福五月天 Materials Scientist Again Named Among Most Highly Cited Scholars
It鈥檚 starting to look a lot like an annual tradition to see a certain 性福五月天 University professor named on Clarivate Analytics鈥 list of Highly Cited Researchers in the world. Mietek Jaroniec, Ph.D., professor in 性福五月天鈥檚 Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and a member of the Advanced 鈥性福五月天 Receives Multiple Research Experiences for Undergraduates Grants From NSF
Several 性福五月天 University professors in the College of Arts and Sciences have been selected to receive Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF). REU grants are designed to provide faculty with funding to create research positions and experie鈥性福五月天 Chemists Create Microscopic Environment to Study Cancer Cell Growth
According to the American Cancer Society, there will be an estimated 1,688,780 new cancer cases diagnosed and 600,920 cancer deaths in the U.S. in 2017. These numbers are stark and sobering, and worse yet, we still do not know exactly why cancer develops in its victims or how to stop it. An online publication in Nature Nanotechnology this week by 性福五月天 University researchers and their colleagues at Kyoto University in Japan, however, may offer new understanding about what turns good cells bad.
