Participants will conduct cutting-edge supervised research in a lab at MIT, and will have the opportunity to take courses at MIT, while gaining the knowledge and experience necessary to become competitive PhD applicants and successful graduate students. Physics, math, psychology, engineering and computer science majors who are interested in the brain and/or cognitive sciences are welcome to apply.
