Incidents in the Undergraduate Research Experience that Contribute to an Interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM)
… during an undergraduate research experience (URE), has been shown to be a high impact activity leading to greater student interest in STEM careers. A closer look is needed to get an idea of what types of experiences during UREs impact a student’s interest in persisting into a STEM field career …

Sindbis virus usurps the cellular HUR protein to stabilize its transcripts and promote infections of mammalian and mosquito cells
… polyadenylated at their 3’ termini. These features allow the viral RNAs to act like cellular mRNAs and make them prime substrates for the cellular mRNA decay machinery. Sindbis virus RNAs are indeed subject to degradation by the cellular mRNA decay machinery in cell culture models of infection. …

Leveraging Epistemic Exclusion as a Lens for Investigating Black Engineering Students' Undergraduate Research Experiences
Undergraduate research experiences (UREs) are presented as a mechanism for improving the persistence of Black engineering students. However, because most engineering UREs are led by faculty and staff in Colleges of Engineering, it is reasonable to assume they are not immune to the systemic racial …
