The Tan Lab is actively searching for collaborators and other outreach opportunities!
Our current educational initiatives include:
Creating a New Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experience Lab Course: Designing a new course to integrate research opportunities into undergraduate education.
Designing a Backyard Research Program: Developing a program for underserved middle and high school students to engage in scientific inquiry and research activities.
We developed a duckweed sampling kit for K-12 students. Please contact us if you are interested in joining our duckweed collection project!

LSU CURE (Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience) is a unique program that allows the integration of authentic research projects into introductory biology laboratory courses. To better understand science and gain confidence in their abilities to do scientific research, students in CURE biology labs focus on in-house research projects. Courses are communication-intensive with a strong focus on science literacy. With over 250 students enrolled in CURE labs each semester, introductory biology has been able to offer these experiences on a large scale to a diverse group of students.
Past project include:
Effect of temperature on turion germination in Spirodela polyrhiza using plant growth as an indication of a positive interaction.
Effect of habitat fragmentation on plant-microbe symbiosis in Lemna japonica using plant growth as an indication of a positive interaction.
