Virtual Residencies

The Biology Scholars Program is based on three independent, but intertwined virtual residency programs, where faculty employ rigorous evaluations of their own teaching with the goal of publishing results demonstrating improved student learning in the laboratory or classroom and leading colleagues in national efforts to sustain undergraduate biology education reform. 

Research Residency Scholars Selected

The 2009-2010 Cohort for the Research Residency has been selected.
