Interdisciplinary Evolutionary Science REU

Tuesday, January 28, 2025

Interdisciplinary Evolutionary Sciences Research Experiences

The focus of this REU is training in evolutionary science, with students working on research projects across several disciplines. Several academic departments at the University of Iowa offer research projects that span a range of topics, including evolution of behavior, origin of species, cancer evolution , evolution of sex , paleontology, and the evolution of disease . Study organisms span a large range of taxa, and include: flies, snails, fungi, viruses, wasps, human cancer cells, beetles, and disease-causing bacteria and protozoa . Students work on one project, but through interactions with their cohort ultimately receive a broad exposure to evolutionary science. As part of the program, students: receive training in research best practices , participate in career workshops , create a digital exhibit based on their research for the University of Iowa Natural History Museum , and make formal research presentations based on their work. Housing, a meal allowance, stipend ($6,250), and a travel allowance are provided to all participants.
