Faculty mentors

These University of Nevada, Reno neuroscience faculty represent the first roster of ENDURE academic year mentors. Each has a strong record of mentoring and is interested in mentoring ENDURE scholars in their research labs. The ENDURE Directors and Program Coordinator will handle the placement of new ENDURE scholars in research labs (so there is no need for applicants to contact these faculty), however, reading about them might help to inform applicants’ statements of research interests. You can find more information about each of these faculty on the University's Integrative Neuroscience faculty page.
