各位學弟妹好，常怡雍老師非常鼓勵大家申請這個國際型獎學金，請參考以下內容：
Did you know that December is the perfect time to start SURFing
with ASPB?
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship - 'SURF' - enables
undergraduate students to conduct 10 consecutive weeks of mentored
plant biology research during the early part of their college
career.
Eligibility: SURF welcomes applicants from any size institution
worldwide, including those following academic calendars not fully
aligned with US norms. Ideally, SURF applicants apply during their
second year of college. Others who are well qualified will be
considered. All students must apply with the expectation that they
will present their completed SURF research at Plant Biology 2013.
Mentors: Students must work with a mentor who is an ASPB member.
Brand new members are welcome! Students without plant biology
faculty at their home institution may arrange to conduct research
with a mentor elsewhere. Mentor arrangements must be established
prior to applying. Contact Katie Engen at ASPB early in the
process and prior to writing the application if help securing a
mentor is needed.
Funding: Successful applicants receive a $4,000 summer stipend, a
one-year membership in ASPB, and $700 (to the mentor or
institution) for materials. SURF recipients may not accept another
source of salary or stipend for this research.
Plant Biology 2013 (July 20-24, 2013 in Providence, Rhode Island)
Attendance: 2012 SURF winners must submit an abstract and present
their research at this ASPB annual conference. The early-bird
student conference registration fee will be waived, although other
conference fees will apply. Each fellowship also provides $575
in travel support. SURF winners are not eligible for any other
travel grant from ASPB. Students with extreme travel costs or who
have very limited travel resources may contact Katie Engen to
discuss potential options.
Applications: Students and their mentors can apply online. SURF
2012 applications will be accepted from December 1, 2011 through
February 24, 2012, until 11:59 p.m. (EST).
