New for 2024-2025! Students will apply FIRST, then selected students will be invited to interview. After interviews, accepted students will be required to attend training before being paired with a scientist mentor. The first round of group interviews will be held in-person July 8-10. Interested students must be available to attend an in-person interview during one of those days. The second round of interviews will be held on Zoom during the week of July 22-26; interested students must also be available for a short interview on one of those dates. Accepted students will be required to attend training August 26-August 30 at the DNALC NYC in Downtown Brooklyn.
