Neuroscience Summer Fellowships
Are you fascinated by the brain? The Center for Structural and Functional Neuroscience (CSFN) is excited to offer student summer research projects that bring together neuroscience with the Humanities, Arts & Education fields. Collaborate with other CSFN faculty and non-neuroscience UM faculty mentors to explore the intersection of these fields. SURF awardees are required to devote their full efforts to conducting their projects for a 10 to 12-week period and participate in a poster session in mid-August, sharing their research results.
