Greetings,
I hope this email finds you well. We are reaching out to inform you that the NYU Langone Neuroscience Institute’s ‘Undergraduate Summer Research Training in Neuroscience’ application for summer 2022 is now live! Please find the flyer attached. If you are able, please distribute this information to the biology/neuroscience students of your institution.
This 10-week paid, immersive training program focuses on exposing undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds to the world of neuroscience research, aiming to inspire them to pursue Graduate School. Selected students will be matched with a faculty mentor and work on a project that aligns with the research of that mentor while gaining exposure to an extensive research community. Students from historically underrepresented backgrounds in STEM that will be entering their sophomore or junior year of college by fall 2022 are strongly encouraged to apply. We are expecting the program to take place in person. Prior research experience is not required.
To be eligible for this program students will need to:
- Be able to participate in the program full-time for 10 weeks (June 6th-August 12th, 2022)
- Be located in New York City during the summer program (housing/meals are not provided)
- Be eligible to work in the US
- Provide 1-2 letters of recommendation
- Provide a personal statement and a diversity statement
- Provide a CV
- Provide an unofficial transcript
