A little update on the lab position- this will be an unpaid
position, but it could serve as a senior honors thesis for the student. Both
Dr. Tecott and I would also be happy to write outstanding recommendation
letters for med/grad school for a student who does excellent work here in
the lab.
I'd like to particularly encourage freshman and sophomores to apply
because I'm looking for a two year commitment from interested
students- part time this school year and next school year('05-'06) for sure,
full time this summer and next summer, and hopefully part time in the Fall
of '06 as well. It takes a while to train someone new, so its most
productive for us and the student working here if he or she can commit to
staying on for a while. A description of our research is below- I encourage
interested students to send me a copy of their CV, undergrad transcripts and
SAT (or MCAT scores) by email at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
thanks,
