• Undergraduate Research Opportunity in Chemistry

  Sep 3, 2014 5:15 pm116 views

  Dr. Frank X. Vazquez, Research ASsistant Professor of Chemistry, is seeking an undergraduate research assistant.  Projects will involve theoretical/computational chemistry.  Students may be able to perform the research for credit under CHEM 499 (supervised research). The requirement for the student would be that they have access to a computer or laptop and that they have some sort of chemistry background (General chemistry, high school chemistry, etc) or basic physics background (general physics, or high school physics).

  Research Description from Dr. Vazquez:

  My research is focused on unraveling how molecular level changes in structure, bonding, and energy lead to large scale changes in chemical and biological processes. Biological phenomena involve a complex interplay of cellular events occurring at many different timescales.

  From a molecular point of view, phenomena in the cell can range from very slow (min to ms) processes, such as protein folding, to very fast (ps to fs) events, such as molecular vibrations. This multiscale nature of cellular systems means that the theoretical methods used to understand them must be able to take into account very different length and time scales. Understanding how large scale cellular phenomena are governed by microscopic molecular and physical interactions requires the development of theoretical and computational methods that can lead to a new multiscale understanding processes occurring in the cell.

  Interested?  Please contact Dr. Vazquez at fxv@uic.edu. 

• Undergraduate Research Opportunity - Dr. Gary Raney’s Language Research Lab

  Aug 24, 2016 9:00 am108 views

  Dr. Raney is looking for students who are interested in gaining research experience related to how people process language and read texts. He and his graduate students study issues such as the following: (a) how is figurative language comprehended? For example, how do you comprehend familiar metaphors, such as “my lawyer is a shark,” and unfamiliar metaphors, such as “life is a pencil?” (b) Does your language background influences how you comprehend figurative language? For example, if you are asked to figure out the meaning of the idiom “don’t look a gift horse in the mouth,” will a native English speaker come up with the same meaning as a native Spanish speaker, a native Chinese speaker, and so on? (c) Do monolinguals and bilinguals process language in different ways? For example, when bilinguals read a text, do they think about the text in both languages? And when bilinguals talk to a group of other bilinguals, how do they switch between languages so easily without losing track of the meaning of the conversation? (d) Do the left and right hemispheres of the brain process language in the same way? Or, do the left and right hemispheres process language differently?

  Undergraduate students can be involved in all stages of the research process, including conducting experiments, coding data, data analysis, and literature searches. You need to be available at least 6 hours per week (daytime hours) and you may volunteer or participate for credit (e.g., for your Honors activity). You also need to be available Wednesday evenings for lab meetings. There are several projects that require people who are not native English speakers, but there are also many research projects with no language requirements. You do not need to be a Psychology major to work in Dr. Raney's lab, but you must be interested in how people comprehend language.

  Working in a research lab is a great way to gain experience and skills that enhance your opportunity to attend graduate school and possibly develop a capstone project. Recent and current capstone projects explore topics such as whether being bilingual influences mathematical problem solving, how different types of instruction influence vocabulary learning, whether the degree of hemispheric lateralization of language is similar for speakers of English and Gujarati, and whether the amount learned from a text is similar when the text is read to you or you read it yourself.

  Contact information

  If you are interested in working in Dr. Raney’s language lab, please contact him via email at geraney@uic.edu. More information about his research is available on my web site (www.uic.edu/~geraney). You can send an application via the UIC Undergraduate Research Experience web site (http://www.uic.edu/uic/research/undergraduate/index.shtml) or download an application (http://geraney.people.uic.edu/Dir%20Research%20application.htm)

• Undergraduate Research: Globaled 2 Project in the College of Education

  Jan 13, 2015 3:15 pm206 views

  Undergraduate Research/Scientific Assistant Position: GlobalEd 2

  The GlobalEd 2 Project at the College of Education is seeking a part-time undergraduate research/scientific assistant to help with the development of curriculum materials and digital support tools for students over spring semester 2015, with the possibility of an extension to summer term.

  This is a 10 hour per week position with occasional additional hours up to 20 hours a week.

  Responsibilities for this position include:

  • Performing Internet research and finding resources on issues related to GlobalEd 2 topics (specifically global food availability and genetically modified foods).
  • Compiling and curating a database of web links, resources, and other tools to help students using the GlobalEd 2 curriculum.
  • Assisting with the development and deployment of official GlobalEd 2 curriculum materials via the web (e.g., worksheets, handbooks, websites, and other digital applications).
  • Data entry using Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and other web-based forms.
  • Data management tasks, including scanning, photocopying, labeling, filing, and analysis of student work.
  • Other duties as needed.

  GlobalEd 2 is an online curriculum developed in collaboration with University of Connecticut. Within GlobalEd 2, middle school social studies classrooms in Connecticut and Chicago participate in an online negotiations simulation to discuss a socioscientific issue. Currently the issue in the GlobalEd 2 curriculum is global food availability and genetically modified foods. Each classroom represents a nation, and within each classroom/nation, there are smaller committees focusing on environment, economy, human rights, and health issues. The nations and committees research their situation, then engage in online discussions (message boards and live "chats") with the goal of reaching international agreement on some solutions to food issues. The goal of the project is to increase students' science literacy and interest in science by situating science in a real-world scenario and a technology rich environment.

  This position is ideal for an undergraduate in education or social sciences who is interested in classroom-based research and has or wants some experience with office/research lab work. This position is also focused on web research, so it is suitable for anyone who enjoys “hunting” for items on the web and curating the best items.

  Strong attention to detail and proficiency in basic Microsoft Office and Google Apps software are required. Also, any technology experience with programming, WordPress, or other content management platforms is preferable.

  Minority students and students with disabilities are encouraged to apply.

  Find out more about GlobalEd 2 at our website: www.globaled2.com.

  Please submit letter of interest and resume to Jeremy Riel at jriel2@uic.edu. Qualified applicants will be interviewed as soon as materials are received.
