Applying to Ph.D. programs is one of the most important, exciting, and stressful periods of the scientific journey. To provide perspectives and tips for graduate school applications, we're joined by Dr. Laurel Gabard-Durnam, a faculty member at Northeastern University and Ellie Taylor, a lab manager at the University of Maryland and current graduate school applicant. We touch on numerous topics along our way, including when to apply, tips for building the best application, and the importance of self care. We hope this episode is useful for any trainee currently applying or considering applying to graduate school in cognitive neuroscience, psychology, or related fields.
