Mentors teach students the background of a research problem, lead students through the process of designing a research project, and answer questions as students learn the basics of laboratory work. Interested students should read the research summaries and identify the top three mentors whose research matches their scientific interests and career goals. Students may select any mentor on the list, irrespective of institution.
