How can I get involved in research early on in college, especially in biotechnology or healthcare?
I want to be hands-on and contribute to something meaningful, but I’m not sure where to start or how competitive those opportunities are. Are research opportunities mostly reserved for upperclassmen or students with connections? How do I find professors doing work I care about, and how do I reach out without feeling like I don’t know enough yet? I’m willing to work hard and learn, but I also know that getting in the door can be the hardest part. This is something I want to figure out early because I don’t want to waste any time.
