This NSF-funded International Research Experience for Students (IRES) will provide US graduate students with opportunities to gain international research experience at the Station Biologique de Roscoff (SBR) in France, a research and training center in marine biology, oceanography, and marine genomics operated by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique and the Université Pierre et Marie Curie.
Students will work closely with SBR researchers on the molecular ecology and evolution of marine photosynthetic organisms. SBR is located in Brittany, a western region of France. Students interested in the program can apply for stays up to 6 months. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.
