The 克拉克福克流域教育计划(CFWEP) at Montana Tech (Rayelynn Brandl, Director) has been placing scientists in the classroom for STEM education/outreach since 2005.
Montana Tech’s PHAGES grant from 美国国立卫生研究院 Science Education Partnership Award hosted several summer research projects on campus.

The CFWEP provides robust educational experiences to all 36 Superfund-affected communities of the Clark Fork Watershed.  CFWEP provides teacher professional development along with authentic research experiences for K-12 students. To date, CFWEP has served over 68,000 students and over 700 teachers.  CFWEP的年度运营预算为767美元,000, funded by the MT Department of Justice Natural Resource Damage Program (NRD), with additional contributions from 孤峰-Silver Bow, 美国国立卫生研究院, 以及环境保护署.  With the projected sunset of the NRD contract in early 2024, CFWEP is actively seeking philanthropic and federal support to continue its education and outreach to disadvantaged Montana communities.

These projects will discover and characterize bacteriophages (a.k.a. phages), which are tiny viruses that infect bacteria. 噬菌体 have been used to successfully treat infectious diseases caused by bacterial pathogens. 绝大多数噬菌体, the most numerous biological entities on the planet, 还没有被发现吗. 两名本科生, 凯莉标志, a sophomore biochemistry major from Helena and Sara Burgmeier, a senior biology major from Drummond will work with Biology Professor 玛丽莎Pedulla 和CFWEP的克里斯·多伊尔进行隔离, 净化, and characterize bacteriophages that infect a devastating fish pathogen bacteria. Partnerships with FWP Fish Scientists at the Washoe Fish Hatchery and Great Falls will test these phages for therapeutic applications in future studies. The Montana Tech undergraduates also worked with a group of middle and high school teachers and six high school students in the PHAGES Pipeline Program. The PHAGES project is supported by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences of 美国国立卫生研究院.  参见:  http://youtu.be/0XwzWcWyERY
