[Coral-List] The Diversity Project

[Paul Barber]

Dear Colleagues,

We are announcing the launch of The Diversity Project, a new research 
opportunity for under-represented minority undergraduate students, 
beginning in Summer 2005  at Boston University. Students will 
integrate hands-on field research on Indonesian coral reefs and 
cutting edge genetic research at the Marine Biological Laboratory, 
Woods Hole, Massachusetts. The project will explore the origins 
marine biodiversity in an effort to improve conservation of these 
remarkable ecosystems. Students are fully funded for both living and 
travel expenses. Visit http://people.bu.edu/pbarber/Intro.htm for 
more information and on-line application. This research opportunity 
promises to be a remarkable personal and professional experience. 
Please encourage any students whom you believe would benefit from 
such an experience to apply. For further information, please contact 
Dr. Paul Barber (pbarber at bu.edu). We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Paul Barber
