    • GatorSTAR MARC trainees will spend 10 weeks in their second program summer (as rising seniors) in an “extramural” research experience at one of our partner institutions or at an REU or SURF site. This allows each Trainee to experience how another laboratory environment operates and thus expand their comfort with the research environment, become familiar with the graduate program at another institution, interact with a potential graduate mentor, and expand the range of each Trainee’s technical expertise upon graduation from UF. In all cases, these extramural research experiences are embedded in a T32 training program, and in some cases the students will also be integrated into established, successful undergraduate training programs with extensive activities. The MARC GatorSTAR program will provide each Trainee who travels to one of the partner institutions with travel expenses and a stipend.
