Abstract

This mini-review will focus on a US Presidential Award/National Science Foundation/ AAAS recognized program that offers research experiences for all interested students. The quality of the research experiences will be documented by citations of student (208 students) co-authored peer reviewed papers and evidence will be presented that students are turned on to research by the method of Oppenheimer mentoring, that will be described. The career outcomes of the students will be detailed and it will be shown that this program is a model for enhancing the science workforce.
