The Physiology Department has an initial application process where students apply for summer research projects in the Department. From these applications, academics will choose which students they would like to invite to do summer research projects in their labs for ten weeks between November/December 2012 and January/February 2013.
Information about projects available in the Department of Physiology will be on our website in July 2012.
Doing a summer research project in Physiology gave me a good idea as to what it's like to actually work within a lab. This allowed me to break down that lecturer-student barrier and get to know people in the Department outside of studies.
