Dr. Barak met with first-year students interested in undergraduate research. How do you find a lab? How do you approach a faculty member about doing undergraduate research? What does your lab look like? What do undergraduates get to do in research labs? Why would anyone join a research lab? What if I don’t think I like bench work? How did you know you wanted to be a researcher? What was your path to plant pathology?

We covered so many questions.
