<span style="font-size:9.5pt">Dear Biology undergrads,</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">The MIT Microbiome SuperUROP program is seeking applicants for the 2017-8 academic year. If you’d like an extraordinary research opportunity this coming year, apply for a chance
to perform cutting-edge research on the human microbiome – the ecosystem of microbes that live in and on our bodies.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">Microbiome SuperUROPs perform research with an emphasis on translational applications of microbiome science, become active members of the Center’s community, and benefit from
additional mentorship to develop their scientific skills. Previous SuperUROPs have begun publications and received job offers based on their work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">This year, we have a variety of both wet-lab and computational SuperUROP projects being offered by microbiome labs at MIT, MGH, the Broad Institute, and other top institutions
in Boston-Cambridge – apply now!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto"><b><span style="font-size:9.5pt;color:black">Eligible Applicants</span></b><span style="font-size:9.5pt;color:black">: All MIT undergraduates with previous research experience. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
