Abstract:
There is widespread recognition of the need to increase research opportunities in biomedical science for undergraduate students from underrepresented backgrounds. Here, we describe the implementation of team‐based science combined with intensive mentoring to conduct a large‐scale project examining the evolution of behavior. This system can be widely applied in other areas of STEM to promote research‐intensive opportunities in STEM fields and to promote diversity in science.
