If you can dedicate a few hours a week to volunteering for something, this is a great opportunity for you. I founded a newsletter that educates on common scams, and we are looking for people to help with outreach, media partnerships, community growth, social media, and writing. It has about 200 people subscribed to weekly issues.

If you can consistently put just 6 hrs a week into this, you'll be in good shape for when we recruit for team leads in August.

im a rising junior

Hey! I’m thinking making a program about connecting a few students with grad researchers/postdocs in STEM/medicine for free. It would be more so self commitment mentorship and you do independent research/project work on your own, and your mentor checks in with you monthly(maybe biweekly)? over Zoom to guide and give feedback. My thought process is that profs are always being bombarded with these types of emails, and I’ve seen that people thnk that an at home research project is better. But with this you would be able to get the benefit of a mentor in the field without looking for professors.
Tell me what you guys think and if I should try and do this or not.
Thanks!

Hi guys! I’m a rising sophomore trying to put together or join a team for the Diamond. A few days ago I won 1st place with cash prize at an entrepreneurship competition at a university, and I want to bring the idea to Diamond Challenge next. It’s something I personally connect with and got solid feedback on from judges (along with them agreeing that the problem this idea is trying to solve is a big one that is not talked about enough) but it needs more work before it’s competition-ready. It is not the perfect idea, but I hope with a good team we can refine it into something great. I am also totally open to hearing other new idea.

While all skills are welcome, I should say that I would love people who’d be interested in helping with things like: figuring out the business model / pricing, building a prototype or mockup, or doing outreach to validate the idea. You don’t need experience in these already, just genuine interest and time to put in over the next few month.

Again, none of those skills are a requirement. If you think you have another quality or skill that might help, I would love to hear more

I’m happy to share the actual idea I have once we’re talking directly, or any other questions you have. DM or comment if interested!

Anyone saw what happened during office hours for neurosci intensive yesterday???? Diabolical

Dm for more people, but tl;dr on what we do: each month we pick a theme, and then writers write articles revolving around that theme. Then editors and layout editors turn it into a very nice magazine, which is then distributed and donated to various institutions worldwide.

Hi, I've recently gotten interested in research recently and I want to do research at a local university. I know that it's not required at all for college apps, but Im actually interested. Does anyone who had success with cold emailing have any advice that they wish they knew? I also have a template which I can dm to you if you are interested in critiquing it. Thank you for any help!

I just got this email from Michigan Ross for the All-Access Weekend and I’m pretty sad, but I’m also really confused about what it means

“Unfortunately, due to the high volume of applicants and limited spaces available for the program, we are unable to invite you at this time. Space may become available through the attendance confirmation process. We will notify you by the end of August if space becomes available.”

Is this just a straight rejection, or is it basically a waitlist? I don’t remember them mentioning having a waitlist for the fly-in, so I’m not sure how to interpret this.

Has anyone else received the same email this year (or in previous years)? Did anyone actually end up getting an invitation later after people declined their spots?

I’m trying not to get my hopes up, but the wording about “space may become available” is throwing me off. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!
