Welcome to the Web site for the Integrative Pollen Biology Research Coordination Network. Our goal is to promote pollen-related research by sharing methods, helping newcomers to the field, supporting collaborations, educating the next generation of scientists about pollen research, and connecting researchers from primarily undergraduate and/or minority-serving universities with investigators from research-intensive institutions. To achieve these goals, the RCN provides travel subsidies and funds to support summer internships. We also produce workshops and a basic methods in pollen research course. To find out more and get involved in the Pollen RCN, explore the links to the left and above. If you have questions or comments about the Pollen RCN, please contact our RCN lead PI, Alice Cheung at University of Massachusetts at Amherst, acheung@biochem.umass.edu. If you have suggestions for improving the Web site, please contact Ann Loraine at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, aloraine@uncc.edu.
