The Center for Applied Neuroscience (CAN) is excited to announce its Summer Internship Program for summer 2020. We are seeking talented and highly motivated undergraduate students from Cyprus or abroad, who are interested in gaining research experience on multidisciplinary projects.
Interns will have the opportunity to engage with research at the CAN’s facilities on the University of Cyprus campus under the supervision of internationally recognized academics and researchers. Also, depending on individual readiness, interns will be able to develop introductory skills in the use of the latest research methods, techniques and lab equipment.
Summer interns will have the option to either:
(1) Select to participate in one or more ongoing projects or
(2) Propose a project of interest*
*interns who propose their own suggested project must note that this will be considered, provided that the center has the capacity in terms of supervision and facilities
Interns who are accepted to the program will be assigned to one lab.
