The Fullbright U. Student Program welcomes applications in the creative and performing arts. Jack Kent Cooke Scholarships: The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation is dedicated to advancing the education of exceptionally promising students who have financial need.
San Diego Foundation Scholarships: The San Diego Foundation Community Scholarship program provides scholarship opportunities for local students to help pursue their educational goals and achieve their higher education dreams. UCEAP Scholarships: The University of California Education Abroad Program provides increased funding for scholarships to further our commitment to international education in line with their promise to make study abroad accessible to all UC students.
UCSD Scholarships: Scholarships are awarded for either academic merit only, or merit and additional criteria such as major of interest, leadership, or financial need. UCSD scholarships are available for freshman, transfer, and continuing students. Undergraduate Research Fellowship: The Institute of Arts and Humanities provides funding for undergraduate students with a declared major or minor in Arts and Humanities to carry out research or present at a conference.
This ultimately leads to the over-prescription of broad-spectrum antibiotics, which could cause adverse drug reactions in individual patients and, over the long term, the emergence of drug-resistant pathogens.
About the size of a thumb drive, the biosensors contain a series of tiny wells into which biological samples can be deposited. Each well has an electrochemical sensor customized with DNA probes that each target a common strain of urinary bacteria. When the probes recognize the target strain of bacteria, an electric signal is generated that is transformed into a digital readout.
Until recently, the DNA probes have lacked stability, meaning that they had to be inserted into the sensor wells immediately before use. DNA biosensors similar to the type Marx works with can also be used for food safety, forensic analysis and the detection of cancer and even bioweapons.
However, Marx originally became interested in biosensors for their potentially otherworldly applications. Sending biosensors to Mars, our nearest celestial neighbor, will require extending the shelf life to at least eights months, admits Marx, seemingly undeterred by the challenge. Cory Jameson studies the structural components of birdsong. Natural communication signals of the European Starling Another student that is using the summer scholars program to further his understanding of a subject he is passionate about is Cory Jameson.
Jameson, a jazz and bluegrass musician, is a junior with a double major in cognitive science and physiology and neuroscience. Working in the lab of Psychology Assistant Professor Timothy Gentner, Jameson has been exploring a novel way to analyze the structure of birdsong. He wrote a custom computer program to separate the various components of birdsong, called motifs, by examining their spectrotemporal modulations, i.
International Relations and Pacific Studies. After he graduated from the program, he went to work in China to set up operations for a computer software company. From these internships, students have started preschools in Latin America, developed economic models in third world countries and fought AIDS in Africa. For many students, these internships play an important role in getting hired after graduation.
Summer Internships at Birch Aquarium at Scripps. Students considering a career in oceanography, education, environmental advocacy or other sciences benefit from a summer internship at Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
The interns acquire lots of communication skills as well as valuable experience with professionals in science education. Roughly 10 students spend the summer at a host site in Australia, Japan, Taiwan or China, after learning some essential software, cultural or language during the spring quarter at UCSD.
The program is open to students from any discipline, but they must work on projects that are related to cyberinfrastructure and applications that run on grid computing and networking systems.
