UMBC / Army Research Lab Participate in Nanotech Education Community College Students Benefit

A new University of Maryland Baltimore College Department of Chemistry program is teaming with Army and other area universities to offer college students in pursuit of associate degrees internships in nanotechnology this summer.

This initiative took its cue, in part, from a national push to increase America's pipeline of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) graduates, focusing on ways communities can contribute.

Ten students from the Community College of Baltimore County were selected from a competitive application screening to participate in the eight-week program that started in June. The summer sessions will be held primarily in University of Maryland Baltimore College (UMBC) laboratories to give students a ". . . very broad exposure to the field".

The group was monitoring charge flux to quantify unusual ligand-induced ion channel activity for use in biological nano-pore based sensors using heat shock cognate 70 (Hsc70). Hsc70 reconstitutes into phospholipid membranes and opens to form multiple conductance states specifically in the presence of ATP. They introduced the measurement of ‘charge flux’ to characterize the ATP-regulated multi-conductance nature of Hsc70, which enables sensitive quantification of ATP (100 μM – 4 mM). They believe that monitoring protein-induced charge flux across a bilayer membrane represents a universal method for quantitatively monitoring ion-channel activity. For more information see the attached website.

The Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship program accepts applications from sophomores and juniors (defined as students who expect to spend one to two more years to complete their undergraduate degrees). The program is named for former Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater, who was committed to encouraging Americans to pursue careers in science and mathematics.  Goldwater Scholars receive 1-2 years of support for college expenses, up to $7,500 per year.

Congratulations Michael!

Please join me in congratulating DeLauren McCauleyfor the winning oral presentation that she gave at the Promise Research Symposium on February 28, 2014 held at the University of Maryland, College Park.   DeLauren delivered a TED-style talk at the symposium. This new conference revises the former PROMISE Research Symposium, and adds a professional development component that will prepare graduate students and postdoctoral fellows for faculty positions in STEM. This conference seeks to provide a venue that will allow students to present their work at any stage, receive feedback in preparation for presenting at larger venues, and provide training that will prepare participants for faculty careers.

Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars were invited to participate and present their research. Participants were invited from all universities within the University System of Maryland. This event is structured to provide training and career preparation for graduate students  postdoctoral scholars who are traditionally underrepresented in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) fields.

Congratulations DeLauren!!
