The Gallaudet University is hosting a fully funded 8-week Research Experience for Undergraduate this summer within the Visual Language and Visual Learning Center. This 8-week training opportunity is for undergraduate students interested in honing their research experience to enter STEM fields or further their education by entering a research-intensive graduate school in cognitive or educational neuroscience (or related fields).
The purpose of this REU Site ASL-English Bilingual Cognitive and Educational Neuroscience Training and Research Experience (CENTRE) is to provide undergraduate students (including rising freshmen) with research training in cognitive neuroimaging methods (theoretical and practical), hands-on research work in a cognitive neuroscience lab, individualized mentoring, and an enduring network, all within a fully accessible ASL-English bilingual environment. Students will also learn about the neuroethical challenges related to neuroimaging research concerning the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing population. The final goal is to acquire research experience to enhance the likelihood of succeeding in STEM fields and entering advanced graduate studies.
