Alabama State University has received a three-year, $400,000 grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to transform biology learning by developing evidenced-based research and learning (EBRL) for undergraduate biology students.

ASU researcher Dr. Manoj Mishra, professor of biology and the director of Cancer Biology Research and Training (CBRT) and the Freshmen Biology program, is the principal investigator for this grant and Dr. Sabita Saldanha, an assistant professor of biology at ASU, is the co-principal investigator.

“It was exciting to hear the great news about the grant,” Mishra said. “This proposal will impact a vast number of undergraduate students who will directly benefit from this project.”

The grant will provide an opportunity to develop an evidenced-based curriculum in biology labs, provide yearlong research experience to five meritorious students in different areas of biology, and help in increasing the research and teaching infrastructure in biology labs.
