"In Fall 2018, I had the amazing opportunity to conduct research with a professor in the biochemistry department. Although I only worked in the lab for a semester, I was able to learn many new lab techniques and apply the information I'd learned in my classes. CU has a ton of great research opportunities, and I would encourage everybody to look into programs like UROP and DLA to find a setting that fits their interests and availability."
