I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Purdue University (West Lafayette, IN) in Aug 2021
Interview
No interview, just a meeting with the professor who manages the undergraduate research program. I chose 3-4 professors and then got selected for zebrafish research. This was my top choice, and I have no regrets. Other professors suggested mice or frog research, which I didn't have the heart to do.
