”With your continued support, I have accepted an offer for my first unpaid co-op opportunity in the Early Psychosis Research Program at Harvard Medical School’s Psychosis Research Program, where I will pariticipate in activities for the CEDAR Clinic—one of only a handful of specialized programs for youth at clinical high-risk for psychosis across the country. This opportunity will be instrumental in gaining the skills I’ll need as a future graduate student carrying out my own research.

”Donor funding can provide immersive academic experiences that allows undergraduate students to engage deeply with the scientific process and experience what a career in science could feel like. While students obtain one-of-a-kind experiences, their efforts are also immensely crucial to the Coastal Sustainability Institute and the Marine Science Center as a whole. Their work enables our faculty and graduate students to push their research further, allowing them to arrive at a deeper understanding of many important questions.”
Dr. Geoffrey C. Trussell
Doherty Professor and Chair, Department of Marine and Environmental Sciences
