Hello from MISTI and the MIT-Germany program!

We would greatly appreciate if you could make your students aware of a wonderful opportunity we will be offering in Germany this summer.  The program, which consists of a full-time UROP-like research internship (research areas attached) combined with 5-10 days of Global Teaching Labs<https://misti.mit.edu/your-resources/crafting-your-experience/types-programs/global-teaching-labs> programming, gives students professional development in a global setting and allows them to spend the summer as a student at the renowned University of Regensburg<https://www.uni-regensburg.de/en>.  The full program description is attached, and listed below.

We are looking for standout undergrad or graduate students with an interest in chemistry and/or biology (particularly plant biology), who are available from roughly June 1—August 19.  We will be closing applications on April 4th, so please direct any interested students to contact me ASAP at atragert at mit.edu<mailto:atragert at mit.edu>.  Thank you for your help!

All the best,
Amanda
