What is the best way to get involved in clinical research straight from undergrad?
I'm currently a junior neuroscience major and working in a research lab on campus. I want to be involved in research (hopefully clinical) in some way immediately post undergrad and I am curious about the best way to go about that.
What steps did you take to formulate a well-structured thesis to answer a research question of your interest?
I am passionate about eating disorders as I am currently undergoing recovery for mine. I would love to research more about the disparities in the demographics of anorexia specifically as a professional psychologist. However, I am having trouble surfing through literature and coming up with a concrete idea and research question. I would appreciate any tips for structuring a research project and even how to acquire a professional team of research assistants.
Finding employment opportunities
Throughout my university journey so far I've been surrounded by friends who've been getting research positions and amazing internships. I really feel the pressure to be on the same level as many of them but I don't know really where to start. Do I build connections first and then reach out? Or do I something completely different? #internships #researchassistant #july20
