REUs really should prioritize those who are marginalized in one or more ways and would otherwise have trouble getting or affording this kind of summer lab experience.

"Undergraduate student participants in either REU Sites or REU Supplements must be U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, or U.S. permanent residents."

Research Experience for Undergraduates Position: Bumble Bee Ecology
 
The Crone Lab at UC Davis is inviting applications for a Research Experience for Undergraduates position for summer 2024. In the Crone Lab, we study the population ecology of wildflowers, bees & butterflies, including demography, phenology, movement ecology, habitat use, and ecological theory. Current research in the “bee wing” of the lab group involves field-based surveys as well as the laboratory rearing of bumble bee colonies. The REU student will design & execute an independent project within the lab’s “bee wing” under the guidance of PhD Student Sylvie Finn. This position will be based in Davis, CA with possible travel to the California coast & Sierra mountains for field research.
This position is ideal for undergraduates majoring in ecology, entomology, biology, or related disciplines with interest in pursuing a graduate degree. No prior research experience is required.
 
Details:
·  will earn a stipend of $6,500 over a ten-week period
·   Flexible start date between May or June 2024 (ending after 10 weeks)
·  Housing in Davis is not provided
 
To apply, please email a statement of purpose (detailing your interest in this research and relevant experience or coursework), resume, and names and contact information for two professional references to srfinn@ucdavis.edu with the subject line “Crone Lab REU 2024”.
 
Review of applications will begin April 15th and will continue until the position is filled.

I'm trying to fill out my following list with more science folks, but i realized I'm missing a lot of the diversity from the bird site. I'd love to see and boost more diverse perspectives.
