If you are interested in learning how to get into the Neuroscience or Biology major, or interested in mentoring others on how to do so, please apply for a UW Neurobiology Club mentor or mentee position using the forms below by Saturday, April 8th. Mentor pairings are meant to give students interested in careers in neuroscience or biology an opportunity to learn from their peers and upperclassmen, and foster a close friendship that encourages mutual learning and success. Mentor pairs commit to personal meetups ideally around twice a month, getting to know each other through casual social activities in addition to Neurobiology Club-organized events.</span></p><p style="color: rgb(14, 16, 26);
