 Undergraduate Corner-Welcome to the Laity Lab

 

 
     
     
 Undergrads in the news!
 What is NMR and what do we do with it? Biocommunique, Winter, 2002 (PDF) 
 How can I do undergraduate research?  Biocommunique, Spring, 2005 (PDF)

 Are you saying to yourself that NMR and structural biology research sounds interesting and is something you that you might
 want to know more about? Are you looking for a research opportunity that will help further your education whether you plan
 to move on to graduate school, medical school, or straight into the science industry? Doing REAL science and possibly getting
 YOUR name on a peer-reviewed journal is a great step towards any of these career paths. If research in our lab is something
 that potentially interests you, then please fill out this form    (undergraduate research questionnaire).
