Research in science is one of the most exciting occupations
we can imagine, but it is not for everyone. This project you are considering
will not only expose you to the physical and intellectual tools of the
scientist but will let you "try out" the life style of a working scientist
in a low risk environment to see if this might just possibly be for you.
It is easy to model most aspects of the scientific process
in an undergraduate laboratory, literature search, protocol writing, and
technical writing, but one aspect is difficult to emulate. When working
scientists encounter a problem, it is not uncommon for them to pick up
a phone or turn to a keyboard. Colleagues are just an electronic instant
away. With students, however, the only scientist nearby is their instructor.
As good as any instructor may be, he or she is only one individual with
limited experience and he or she may not always be able to suggest a solution.
This sort of experience with our own students prompted us to design this
mentoring component of our web site: The Undergraduate Research Mentoring
Network.
Further down this page is a list of over one hundred microbiologists.
The list includes experienced teachers, and academic, government and industry
researchers. Each has a strong interest in undergraduate education and
the effective training of the next generation of scientists. Their combined
experience is enormous, and although we are sure there are research areas
not covered in the following data base, we trust that they will be few
and will become fewer as more names are added to the list. Each of these
scientists has agreed to serve as a mentor/advisor to students just like
you who are making their first explorations into the field of research
microbiology. They have agreed to accept requests for advice and to respond
promptly with appropriate counsel and suggestions. The student must understand
that the role of the mentor/advisor is to guide and suggest, not to direct
and design the students research project. Little growth will occur if the
mentor takes too assertive a role. Often the best advice will consist of
asking questions for the student to consider or perhaps the suggestion
of a few appropriate literature citations. Often too, the best service
may be to listen to the student's proposal and provide encouragement and
a few practical tips to help the student gain confidence in her/his own
abilitiy.
If you wish to contact one of the scientists listed below please
keep in mind that they are generous but also very busy people. They are
anxious to help you, but it is your responsibility to use their time well.
1. You can simply scroll down the list and read the entries in alphabetical order. This is a good way to get an idea of the variety and types of Key Words the scientists have submitted to describe their research and teaching interests.
2. Alternatively, you can choose the [FIND] function of your web browser and type in a key word (eg Cyanophage).
Press [Return] and the finder will bring up the first entry in the data base containing that word.
To search further, press [Find Again]. When no further matches are found the finder will indicate this with an audible tone.
If no matches are found, try another Key Word.
You may truncate the term you are using to broaden your search. Using "muta" for example will yield mutagen, mutation, mutagenesis and mutant.
Having found a match, click on the scientists name at the end
of the data base entry. This will bring up a dialog box labled [Send
Mail] or [Post To] and will have the scientists e-mail address
already printed.
Insert your e-mail address and include any relevant information and questions.
When your are finished press [Send] and your message will be on its way.
In order to keep abreast of the use of the UMR web site it would be helpful if when sending requests to your mentor to also [POST TO] jel5@psu.edu. This will permit us to see what topics are being requested most frequently and to add people in areas where the demand is high.
If after a search you are unable to find the topic, please [MAIL TO] John Lennox and list key words describing your project. He will try to find someone with that expertise willing to join the network.
Because of the volunteer nature of the UMR network and the mobility of scientists, it is possible that you will find an e-mail address inactive. If so, please notify John Lennox at jel5@psu.edu

Phone: 509-335-8649
Research Interests: The molecular mechanisms which control morphology
and development in eucaryotic cells are poorly understood. Specifically,
we are interested in the molecular mechanism controlling development in
the dimorphic fungus Mucor racemosus. Presently, the regulation of t*he
expression of the microtubule proteins alpha and beta tubulin, is the focus
of our research. Characterization of genomic clones of the tubulin genes
is under way. Transcriptional control of these genes is of particular interest.
