Creativity, Discovery, Engagement
Learning Like No Other
Research in the biological sciences gives students a broader appreciation for their field of study. Research is an excellent way to develop problem-solving and creative thinking skills. In the process, students benefit from increased interactions with fellow students and faculty while they gain confidence through hands-on, real-world experiences in the field and in the lab.
AU Students have the opportunity to present their findings on campus and at regional and national meetings. Meetings include the Georgia Academy of Sciences Conference, the Association of Southeastern Biologists (ASB) Meeting, the Southeastern Estuarine Research Society (SEERS) Meeting, and the Southeastern Regional Yeast Meeting (SERYM), among others. In addition, the 腦瞳憫 chapter of Phi Kappa Phi hosts an annual, campus-wide research conference where students present their findings in poster format and oral presentations to the Augusta community.
Throughout the year, the Center for Undergraduate Research and Scholarship hosts the Brown Bag Series where 腦瞳憫 students from all disciplines present their research.
The Baltzegar Lab studies rapid evolution that occurs in response to human-induced changes to the environment in insect vectors with human-health importance, including mosquitoes in the Aedes genus and the German cockroach, Blattella germanica.
Research Interests: Population Genomics / Vector Biology / Ecology / Insecticide Resistance
The Goldstein Lab the pathogenesis and repair of diffuse white matter injury the most common neuropathological outcome of premature birth.
Research Interests: Brain Injury / Myelin / Epigenetics
The Langridge Lab focuses on cell-signaling research, particularly on the Notch receptor. Notch is a receptor used in all multicellular animals for cell fate decisions at numerous stages of development and in many aspects of physiology.
Research Interests: Synthetic Biology / Development / Cell Biology
