IMPROVING RETENTION AND SUCCESS OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS WITH ENHANCED RESEARCH AND LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES IN BIOLOGY -WITH SUPPORT FROM THE IMPROVING UNDERGRADUATE STEM EDUCATION: HISPANIC-SERVING INSTITUTIONS (HSI PROGRAM), THIS IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION PROJECT AT REGIS UNIVERSITY AIMS TO IMPROVE UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT SUCCESS AND RETENTION IN BIOLOGY BY EXPANDING RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES AND DEVELOPING LEADERSHIP SKILLS THROUGH THE NEW REGIS RESEARCH FELLOWS PROGRAM. THIS PROJECT DEVELOPS STRUCTURED, EVIDENCE-BASED EXPERIENCES THAT HELP STUDENTS BUILD CONFIDENCE, SKILLS, AND A STRONG SENSE OF BELONGING IN STEM FIELDS LEADING TO INCREASING STUDENT RETENTION AND GRADUATION RATES. THESE EFFORTS WILL ALSO GROW THE UNIVERSITY'S CAPACITY TO SUPPORT FUTURE STEM STUDENTS AND PROMOTE LONG-TERM SUCCESS. THE SPECIFIC AIMS OF THE PROJECT ARE TO (1) INCREASE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION OF BIOLOGY AND STEM MAJORS, (2) SUPPORT UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH AND MENTORING, AND (3) PREPARE STUDENTS FOR LEADERSHIP ROLES. THE REGIS RESEARCH FELLOWS PROGRAM INCLUDES A COORDINATED SEQUENCE OF FIVE ACTIVITIES DURING A STUDENT'S FIRST THREE UNDERGRADUATE YEARS: COURSE-BASED UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH IN REDESIGNED GENERAL BIOLOGY LABS, PAID SUMMER RESEARCH PLACEMENTS WITH REGIS FACULTY, MENTORING DURING THE ACADEMIC YEAR, SUMMER RESEARCH EXPERIENCE AT A PARTNER INSTITUTION, NATIONAL JEWISH HEALTH, AND A LEADERSHIP ROLE AS A PAID LEARNING ASSISTANT IN BIOLOGY COURSES. MIXED-METHODS RESEARCH WILL BE USED TO ASSESS HOW STUDENTS' SCIENCE IDENTITY, RESEARCH SKILLS, AND SENSE OF BELONGING ARE IMPACTED. ASSESSMENTS WILL BE CONDUCTED FOR EACH OF THE FIVE ACTIVITIES, THEN ANALYZED TO DETERMINE WHICH ACTIVITIES (ALONE OR IN COMBINATION) ARE MOST EFFECTIVE FOR STUDENT SUCCESS. FINDINGS WILL BE SHARED THROUGH PRESENTATIONS, PUBLICATIONS, AND COLLABORATION WITH OTHER INSTITUTIONS, CONTRIBUTING TO BEST PRACTICES FOR SUPPORTING UNDERGRADUATE STEM STUDENTS. THIS PROJECT IS FUNDED BY THE HSI PROGRAM, WHICH AIMS TO ENHANCE UNDERGRADUATE STEM EDUCATION, BROADEN PARTICIPATION IN STEM, AND INCREASE CAPACITY TO ENGAGE IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF INNOVATIONS TO IMPROVE STEM TEACHING AND LEARNING AT HSIS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

THRIVING COLLEGE STUDENTS, EXPANDING POSSIBILITIES: THE GLOBAL INCLUSIVE PROGRAM FOR ADULTS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES

NURSE FACULTY LOAN PROGRAM

RUI: TESTING FUNDAMENTAL SYMMETRIES WITH MUON EXPERIMENTS -THIS AWARD WILL SUPPORT THE REGIS UNIVERSITY GROUP IN CONTINUING TO PROBE ONE OF THE FEW KNOWN EXPERIMENTAL DISCREPANCIES WITH THE STANDARD MODEL OF SUBATOMIC PHYSICS, WHICH ENCODES OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE FUNDAMENTAL BUILDING BLOCKS OF MATTER AND ENERGY. THE FERMILAB MUON G-2 EXPERIMENT OBSERVES MUONS, WHICH ARE SUBATOMIC PARTICLES THAT ARE LIKE MASSIVE ELECTRONS, AS THEY MOVE THROUGH A MAGNETIC FIELD. IT MEASURES THE RATE AT WHICH THE MUONS? SPIN DIRECTIONS ROTATE; THIS RATE IS DETERMINED BY THE SUM OF THE MUONS? INTERACTIONS OF ALL KINDS, POTENTIALLY INCLUDING INTERACTIONS WITH NEW PARTICLES OR VIA NEW KINDS OF FORCES THAT HAVE NOT YET BEEN DISCOVERED DIRECTLY. THE STANDARD MODEL MAKES A PRECISE THEORETICAL PREDICTION; IT DIFFERS FROM THE RECENTLY-PUBLISHED RESULT FROM THE EXPERIMENT?S FIRST YEAR OF DATA COLLECTION AT A LEVEL THAT MAY REVEAL THE EFFECTS OF NEW PHYSICAL PROCESSES. A MUCH LARGER DATA SET HAS ALREADY BEEN COLLECTED AND IS BEING ANALYZED, AND ONE ADDITIONAL YEAR OF DATA COLLECTION IS EXPECTED. MEANWHILE, THE PRECISION OF THE STANDARD MODEL PREDICTION IS LIMITED PRIMARILY BY THE UNCERTAINTY OF THE CONTRIBUTIONS TO IT FROM HADRONS: PARTICLES THAT ARE COMPOSED OF QUARKS AND GLUONS, WHICH ARE THE DOMAIN OF NUCLEAR PHYSICS. THE REGIS GROUP WILL PARTICIPATE SUBSTANTIALLY BOTH IN THE COMPLETION OF THE FERMILAB EXPERIMENT AND IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MUONE EXPERIMENT AT CERN, WHICH WILL MEASURE THE HADRONIC CONTRIBUTIONS WITH AN INDEPENDENT METHOD. REGIS UNIVERSITY?S PHYSICS PROGRAM IS UNDERGRADUATE-FOCUSED, AND THIS AWARD WILL GENERATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR PHYSICS MAJORS AND MINORS TO BECOME INVOLVED IN LEADING-EDGE RESEARCH IN NUCLEAR PHYSICS. THEY WILL DEVELOP LABORATORY, DATA ANALYSIS, AND COMPUTING SKILLS AS THEY PARTICIPATE, WITH SUBSTANTIAL MENTORING, IN THE MUON G-2 AND MUONE EXPERIMENTS. FURTHERMORE, REGIS UNIVERSITY IS A DIVERSE CAMPUS, SO MANY OF THE STUDENTS WHO WILL BE SUPPORTED BY THIS RENEWED GRANT ARE EXPECTED TO BE FROM GROUPS THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNDERREPRESENTED IN THE SCIENCES. THE MUON G-2 EXPERIMENT WILL IMPROVE THE PRECISION OF THE MEASUREMENT OF THE MUON?S ANOMALOUS MAGNETIC MOMENT FROM 350 TO 140 PARTS PER BILLION (PPB), PROVIDING A WINDOW FOR DISCOVERY. EXTENDING THE EXPERIMENT TO THE NEGATIVE MUON POLARITY IN THE FINAL RUN, AS IS PLANNED, WILL ALSO ALLOW FOR A PRECISION TEST OF CPT AND LORENTZ SYMMETRIES. THE UNCERTAINTY ASSOCIATED WITH THE STANDARD MODEL PREDICTION, WHICH IS CURRENTLY 370 PPB, WILL SOON BE THE LIMITING FACTOR IN INTERPRETING THE MUON G-2 RESULT. THIS UNCERTAINTY ARISES PREDOMINANTLY FROM THE HADRONIC VACUUM POLARIZATION COMPONENT, WHICH MUONE WILL DETERMINE FROM THE RUNNING OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC COUPLING (ALPHA) WITH ENERGY SCALE IN ELASTIC SCATTERING OF A MUON BEAM FROM TARGET ELECTRONS. THE REGIS UNIVERSITY GROUP WILL CONTINUE TO OPERATE AND ANALYZE DATA FROM THE ?FIBER HARP? BEAM MONITORING DETECTORS IN THE MUON G-2 EXPERIMENT, AND TO FURTHER DEVELOP THE COLLABORATION?S MONTE CARLO SIMULATIONS, WHICH WILL BE USED TO STUDY QUESTIONS RELATED TO THE DYNAMIC MOTION OF THE STORED MUON BEAM. THE REGIS GROUP WILL ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO THE COMPLETION OF THE TECHNICAL PROPOSAL FOR THE MUONE EXPERIMENT AND TO ITS FIRST PHYSICS DATA COLLECTION, INITIALLY TAKING ON ROLES IN THE DESIGN, SIMULATION, AND TESTING OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC CALORIMETER AND OTHER DOWNSTREAM DETECTOR COMPONENTS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.

IMPROVING INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY IN UNDERGRADUATE BIOLOGY COURSES WITH LABORATORY EQUIPMENT -WITH SUPPORT FROM THE IMPROVING UNDERGRADUATE STEM EDUCATION: HISPANIC-SERVING INSTITUTIONS (HSI PROGRAM), THIS EDUCATIONAL INSTRUMENTATION PROJECT AT REGIS UNIVERSITY WILL STRENGTHEN UNDERGRADUATE LEARNING IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY AND CELL BIOLOGY. SPECIFICALLY, THIS PROJECT WILL SECURE THREE THERMOCYCLERS, ONE QPCR MACHINE, CLASSROOM SETS OF COMPOUND AND STEREO MICROSCOPES, AND ONE CONFOCAL MICROSCOPE, WHICH WILL ALLOW STUDENTS TO CONDUCT RESEARCH AND COURSEWORK IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, CELL BIOLOGY, DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY, GENETICS, VIROLOGY, AND IMMUNOLOGY. AN ESTIMATED 690 STUDENTS AND 12 FACULTY WILL UTILIZE THE PROJECT-FUNDED EQUIPMENT EACH YEAR. THE GOALS OF THIS PROJECT ARE TO ENRICH THE LEARNING AND EXPERIENCES OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS BY UPGRADING AND PROVIDING CRITICAL EQUIPMENT IN MOLECULAR AND CELL BIOLOGY. THIS PROJECT ALSO FOCUSES ON USING MOLECULAR BIOLOGY TOOLS TO ELUCIDATE CELLULAR PROCESSES AT THE DNA, RNA, PROTEIN, AND WHOLE ORGANISM LEVELS. THE PROJECT WILL ASSESS THE IMPACT OF THE FUNDED EQUIPMENT USING PORTIONS OF THE SURVEY OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXPERIENCES (SURE) AND THE BIOLOGY SELF-EFFICACY SCALE. THIS PROJECT IS FUNDED BY THE HSI PROGRAM, WHICH AIMS TO ENHANCE UNDERGRADUATE STEM EDUCATION, BROADEN PARTICIPATION IN STEM, AND INCREASE CAPACITY TO ENGAGE IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF INNOVATIONS TO IMPROVE STEM TEACHING AND LEARNING AT HSIS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

ESTABLISHING A HIGH IMPACT UNDERGRADUATE STEM SUMMER RESEARCH EXPERIENCE EARLY IN COLLEGE THAT LEADS TO IMPROVED STUDENT OUTCOMES -WITH SUPPORT FROM THE IMPROVING UNDERGRADUATE STEM EDUCATION: HISPANIC-SERVING INSTITUTIONS (HSI) PROGRAM THIS PROJECT AIMS TO INCREASE RETENTION AND SUCCESS OF LATINE STUDENTS IN PURSUING LIFE SCIENCE DEGREES AT REGIS UNIVERSITY. SPECIFICALLY, THE PROJECT WILL CREATE A PAID, FACULTY-MENTORED SUMMER RESEARCH PROGRAM FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS EARLY IN THEIR COLLEGIATE EXPERIENCE. THE TRANSITION BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND YEAR OF COLLEGE IS A CRUCIAL TIME FOR STUDENTS DECIDING WHETHER TO PURSUE FURTHER STUDY IN STEM. SUMMER RESEARCH EXPERIENCES ARE WIDELY AVAILABLE AT MULTIPLE INSTITUTIONS BUT MAY NOT BE ACCESSIBLE TO STUDENTS EARLY IN THEIR COURSE OF STUDY, ESPECIALLY BEFORE THEY HAVE FOUNDATIONAL LABORATORY AND RESEARCH EXPERIENCE, AND AT A TIME WHEN THEY HAVE HIGH POTENTIAL TO LEAVE THE SCIENCES. ADDITIONALLY, STUDENTS AT REGIS UNIVERSITY ARE INCREASINGLY FIRST-GENERATION, LATINE, WORKING, AND MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL DEMANDS ON THEIR TIME SUCH AS FAMILY COMMITMENTS. CREATING PAID OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO PARTICIPATE IN RESEARCH THROUGH A FACULTY-MENTORED SUMMER RESEARCH EXPERIENCE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO REMOVE BARRIERS FOR STUDENTS TO EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH. STUDENTS WHO NEED SUMMER EMPLOYMENT WILL BE ABLE TO SUPPORT THEMSELVES FINANCIALLY WHILE BUILDING IMPORTANT CAREER-RELEVANT SKILLS THAT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO ACHIEVE DURING A REGULAR SEMESTER. THIS PROGRAM AIMS TO INCREASE RETENTION AND SUCCESS OF UNDERGRADUATES IN THE LIFE SCIENCES BY: 1) DECREASING BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION IN AN AUTHENTIC RESEARCH EXPERIENCE WITH FACULTY; 2) GUIDING STUDENTS THROUGH MENTORED RESEARCH AT A CRITICAL TRANSITION POINT BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND YEAR OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDY; 3) PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND A COHORT MODEL TO BETTER PREPARE STUDENTS FOR FURTHER EDUCATION OR CAREERS IN STEM AND STRENGTHEN THEIR FEELINGS OF BELONGING IN STEM; 4) BUILDING AN EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH FACULTY MENTORS LEARN FROM STUDENTS ABOUT THEIR NEEDS AND HOW BEST TO SUPPORT THEM. THE PROJECT WILL USE PREVIOUSLY VALIDATED TOOLS TO MEASURE CHANGES IN SCIENTIFIC SKILLS, SELF-CONFIDENCE, AND WELL-BEING. THESE ASSESSMENTS WILL ALLOW FOR AN ASSESSMENT OF WHICH PROJECT INTERVENTIONS IMPACTED STUDENT RETENTION AND WILL CAPTURE HOW STUDENTS WERE MOST IMPACTED. THE PROJECT?S COMPONENTS AND OUTCOMES WILL BE SHARED INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY WITH A BREADTH OF INSTITUTIONS AND EDUCATORS ACROSS STEM DISCIPLINES. THIS PROJECT IS FUNDED BY THE HSI PROGRAM, WHICH AIMS TO ENHANCE UNDERGRADUATE STEM EDUCATION, BROADEN PARTICIPATION IN STEM, AND BUILD CAPACITY AT HSIS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.
