Eleven undergraduate students from around the nation, including five from Rice, spent part of their summer training for interdisciplinary research in bionanotechnology.
They attended the Rice Institute of Biosciences and Bioengineering’s Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Summer Internship in Bionanotechnology.
Most students in this program are pursuing degrees in physics, chemistry or engineering and also want to explore the biological sciences. The HHMI program begins with an intensive course of lectures and laboratory training in cell biology to prepare the interns to take advantage of opportunities they will have in the research laboratories at Rice.
