The Summer Program in Undergraduate Research (SPUR) program at Case Western Reserve University is a 10 week summer internship program designed to acquaint students with all aspects of scientific research, from formulation of a question to production of a final report. Each participant is assigned to a faculty member whose research is of interest to that student. While the student's research is expected to contribute to ongoing research in the faculty member's laboratory, the students are encouraged to help in designing a research project. Students share in their departments' weekly activities such as seminars and journal clubs. All participants join in several activities that will encourage interaction among all students engaged in summer research. The program culminates with a one-day poster session where students share their results with the research community at Case Western Reserve University.  For additional information, visit http://www.case.edu/artsci/biol/hhmi/spur.html.
