The WUSTL ENDURE program is a two-year opportunity consisting of both summer and academic year activities. The experience is maximally effective when students engage fully in all program components. We expect that participants:
Summer
- Attend the program for its entire duration.
- Commit to full-time research (~40hrs/week).
- Immerse themselves in the lab: participate in group meetings and other lab activities.
- Attend all program events and complete assignments on time.
- Present a research poster at our closing symposium.
- Live with other scholars in on-campus housing.
- Complete all program and course evaluations.
Academic Year
- Perform research (optional, up to 9 h/week).
- Participate in six ENDUREing Synapses workshops (online).
- Attend and present at the Society for Neuroscience meeting.
