The Neuroscience Program and the Henry and Amelia Nasrallah Center for Neuroscience are pleased to announce three SLU undergraduate students have been selected for the Summer 2022 cohort of the DeNardo Neuroscience Summer Undergraduate Research Fellows (NeuroSURF) Program.
The 10-week program is designed for SLU students with a interest in research in neuroscience. Work done by students & their mentors will support the student’s educational goals & will be shared with the scientific community by conference presentation & through publications.
The Fellows (all BS of Neuroscience students) & the PIs they will be working with are:
Emily Haar; Dr. Jill Waring, Department of Psychology
Carla Hamwi; Dr. Judy Ogilvie, Department of Biology
Julia Lanfersieck; Dr. Fenglian Xu, Department of Biology
Yesterday, the Neurophysiology Lab students presented their projects and discussed what they learned in the process. Afterward, they had a small gathering to celebrate their success and each other.
