Researcher of the Week: DeVenna Dixon
Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!
Meet DeVenna,
She is an Environmental Studies major and an URACADian*. Devenna is also a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., Lambda Phi chapter. She would like to continue her research regarding human/environment interaction and how they impact each other. Specifically, how African American’s are impacted by the environment and vice versa. Her future plans will be to join the Peace Corps.
She is will be creating a film that will explore “What does it mean to be Black in America?” Devenna will conduct interviews with a variety of subjects (known and unknown volunteers from the street) before and after the 2015 Baltimore uprising. The purpose of this research is to shed light on the reality of the Black American experience. Moreover, the ultimate goal was to gather individual feelings, to prove that stereotypes should not be used, and that everyone has a different understanding of what it means to be Black.

Educational Psychology Internship
Summer Undergraduate Research Program at Virginia University
From the University of Virginia, Curry School of Education:
The Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP) is a 10-week internship that provides undergraduates from underrepresented groups with valuable research and professional development experience under the guidance of UVA Faculty conducting education research.
This internship program is designed to encourage students from groups traditionally underrepresented in the field of education research to pursue graduate study and consider careers in academic, policy, or research organizations.
Interns will work on research focusing on schools, classrooms, and other youth settings as contexts critical to child and adolescent development. They will also participate in developmental workshops and meetings, and present at a research conference.
SURP interns will receive many benefits that will help them:
- Be prepared to apply to graduate programs in educational research
- Clarify and develop their research interests
- Expand their network of faculty, graduate students, and peer scholars
- Build a proficiency in statistical methods and at least one software program
- Develop greater familiarity with the contours of the research process and academic writing
Students will receive a stipend of $3000, support for travel to/from Charlottesville, and $500 towards meals.
The deadline to apply is FEBRUARY 1.
*See website for further details

Researcher of the Week: Sigfredo Soto
Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!
Meet Sigfredo,
He is a Physics major and an URA Scholar. Sigfredo transferred from Anne Arundel Community College with an Associates of Arts in Communications. He is an advocate for undergraduate research. "Take the opportunity if you can find it. It is eye opening and satisfying when you reach personal milestones. Find a mentor that you feel comfortable with. Take it as seriously as you would school work."
His research explores the skies above and is trying to understand the current mismatch between our observational and theoretical capabilities in the effort to understand the gamma-ray variable emission of blazars coming from the vicinity of a black hole. The goal of his research is to develop realistic numerical simulations to model the variable gamma-ray emission of luminous blazars, powerful relativistic jets emanating from the vicinity of the supermassive black holes found in the centers of active galaxies.
Read more about his research here…

Researcher of the Week: Sarah Pollock
Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!
Meet Sarah,
Sarah is a
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major as well as a
MARC U*STAR Scholar. She
is very interested in health policy and health disparities, and would like to get her Master's in Public Health before going to either medical school or graduate school (for a PhD in health and public policy). Sarah is also involved with the SUCCESS program and is the president of
Retrievers for Animal Welfare and Sustainability. In her spare time, she is a campus organizer for The Humane League and help organize the annual Baltimore VegFest held on UMBC’s campus.
Sarah participated in a group research project that explored a system to evaluate a novel sensor employing innovative nanoreaction chamber technology, which will track transient biomolecular interactions in real time at a single molecule level. They evaluated this sensor by studying the interactions between the FK506-binding protein (FKBP) and the FKBP12-rapamycin binding (FRB) domain in the presence of various small molecules such as rapamycin. FKBP bound rapamycin forms complexes with the FRB domain of mTOR, which is an essential regulator of cell growth and survival.

Researcher of the Week: Caroline Larkin
Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!
Meet Caroline,
She is a
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology major as well as a
Meyerhoff Scholar. She is heavily involved in Golden Key International Society and also plays soccer. Much of her extracurricular time is spent at Blue Crab CrossFit, where she works out almost every day. Her future goal is to eventually earn a Ph.D. in Computational Genetics and hopefully one day run a research lab that utilizes computational methods to better understand the genetic basis of many diseases such as Crohn’s Disease.
Her research involves in the study of heterogeneous cancer phenotypes. Cancer is a disease arising from a variety of sub-clonal tumor cells dynamically interacting within themselves and the surrounding environment. Sub-clonal tumor heterogeneity is a relatively new aspect of cancer, and its understanding is essential for the development of cancer therapeutics. To better understand the dynamics of sub-clonal tumor heterogeneity, we developed a computational framework to construct non-spatial, dynamic mathematical models of tumor heterogeneity.
Read more about her research here…

Need $1500 for Your Research or Creative Project?
URA Workshop with Dr. Blaney and Dr. Forestiere
Undergraduate Research Awards provide up to $1,500 to undergraduate students to support their research or creative work with a UMBC faculty mentor on an original project. UMBC students of all years and disciplines are invited to apply, as long as they will remain enrolled at UMBC long enough to complete the proposed work.
An informal workshop with current and past URA mentors Dr. Lee Blaney of the Chemical, Biochemical, and Environmental Engineering department and Dr. Carolyn Forestiere of the Political Science department. Three current URA Scholars will also be in attendance to discuss their experience in the program.
