They offer important opportunities to gain mentored research and practice-based experience in a CDC-funded multidisciplinary injury prevention center. Interns could work with a mentor from the University of Michigan, the Michigan Department of Health & Human Services, or other organizations on ongoing injury prevention research or practice projects.

The goal of this project is to understand the general nature of thick feeder dikes at the Chief Joseph Dike Swarm (CJDS), including emplacement, growth mechanisms, and structural influences that contribute to flow volumes and how often these flow events occur.

In this IRES site project, student participants will collect geologic data via state-of-the-art GNSS stations, and magnetometers. Students will use this data coupled with InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) methods to assess ground deformation with the goal of identifying a new tectonic boundary and velocity a vector for a tectonic block that we have named the Guanacaste Tectonic Sliver (GTS). This will allow for a better assessment of regional seismic hazards in this region of the country. Student-authored poster publications that will be presented at scientific conferences are the expected research outcome for participating students.

The UCLA Brain Research Institute (BRI) sponsors a summer undergraduate research experience (BRI-SURE) which solicits applications from students from universities and colleges across the nation.
