My mentor is always there when I need advice, and helped me with many different aspects of this project, including getting in touch with many professionals in our industry.

The most valuable part of this experience was learning the administrative part of research. Before this project, I had not realized that a research project requires a lot of professional conversations. With this project, I was able to learn how to navigate those interactions.

The most valuable part of the experience was working closely with the data to understand what kind of impact COVID-19 had on the mental health of individuals my age. This was valuable because I believe that destigmatizing mental health is important since it's so rampant during the transitionary period from high-school to college.

At first, I didn't think I was cut out for research, but my mentor invited me to join her group and I figured it was an opportunity I couldn't refuse. As I learned about the graduate students' projects throughout the semester and took other research courses, I began to understand and appreciate data collection and analysis鈥攁nd especially talking about my results with peers. My mentor was critical in guiding my research interests this year. It's an honor and a privilege to work under such a kind, strong, driven, and responsible female scientist. Overall, I found the experience of being given the time and space to explore my interests and follow in my mentor's footsteps an extremely valuable experience.

I learned that I can always learn more. Even if I'm fluent in a specific topic, there鈥檚 always more to learn and other experts to take experiences from.

Working with the specific group of students was a very different experience than anything I've ever been involved in. It introduced me to new parts of teaching that I never had dealt with before, such as trying to figure out how to manage a classroom of students that didn't always pay attention, and working with students from all sorts of different backgrounds. I have taken away so much knowledge from this experience and feel more confident as a teacher after spending time working with these students.
Elise Ehlert

My mentor achieved a perfect balance between working with her research assistants while also providing them with opportunities to work with librarians and complete research tasks on their own. This balance between guidance and independence really helped me learn a lot and become more comfortable with the research process.

As a first-year student, it provided very early experiences teaching multiple students in a classroom setting.
Liam Kiernan

I learned an incredible amount of technique in developing and improving on cloning and recombinant DNA technologies. I feel that working with my team helped me develop critical thinking in designing experiments and understanding how synthetic biology techniques work beyond simply following a procedure.
Jordan Kassanoff

Before I started work in my mentor's lab, I was coming out of two years of COVID, and my labs had digressed into on-line point-and-click projects that made me a bit disillusioned with my major. This project gave me the motivation and purpose I needed to find my joy in science again.
David Birkhaeuser

For me, the most valuable part of working with my mentor this year has been the leadership experience that he has bestowed upon me through my position as Chief RA of the project. Being Chief RA has not only helped me develop my leadership and management skills, but also boosted my confidence in both the work that I do and the type of person that I am.听 Working on the project has also helped confirm my fascination with human language and my desire to improve the efficacy of its use in psychological contexts.
