This presentation details the current work of the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) Biology Division in facilitating the spread of best undergraduate research practices to the life science community.These projects include active award programs to assist students in being able to purchase supplies for research projects and travel to professional meetings to disseminate their research, a professional development program for the integration of course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) into the undergraduate classroom, a recognition program for outstanding research mentors, and an outreach initiative for maximizing the spread of Division work to as wide of an audience as possible.Our assessment data indicates success at increasing the number of institutions participating in active undergraduate research initiatives as well as the number of individual faculty successfully mentoring research in both apprenticeship and CURE modalities.We will provide information for participants interested in joining our efforts.
