Dear Neuroscientists, An undergraduate student from the University of Winnipeg contacted me recently asking if there are any opportunities to experience research in a neuroscience laboratory. She is open to volunteer and summer student positions. Please let us know if you are interested and I will send you her contact information and transcript. Thank you.
