Finding the right research advisor can be one of the most important decisions you make in graduate school. The relationship you build with your advisor can shape your research direction, academic experience, and long-term career success.
Join Cientifico Latino, Inc. for a panel discussion where current graduate students (Lewis Nunez Severino, PhD student in Neuroscience at Brown University and Paula Martinez-Feduchi, PhD student in Molecular Medicine and Mechanisms of Disease at the University of Washington) share their experiences selecting their research advisors. Panelists will discuss how they approached this decision, red flags to watch out for, and how to navigate challenges once you have joined a lab.
Topics include:
- What to consider when evaluating potential research advisors and lab environments
- Balancing research interests, mentorship style, and lab culture
- Questions to ask before committing to a lab
