1. Scientific Review - Systems Neuroscience
Review the literature regarding a topic in systems neuroscience. Learn how to read and understand scientific articles, compile important findings, and predict the future state of the field.
2. Neuroscience Podcast
Work on your scientific communication skills by creating a podcast series to communicate systems neuroscience articles and important findings in a way anyone can understand.
3. Medical OpEd
One cornerstone of academic medicine is effective written communication. In this project, you will develop skills in reviewing medical literature and synthesizing that information. Some ideas: review current treatments available and describe the future directions of the fields of psychiatry, neurology, or neurosurgery.
