Welcome!!

Hello to all!!!
This is the first post on my new blog "Summer of a NSERC student." I have decided to start this blog with the intent to give other students some idea of what a undergrad student would do day-to-day working under a NSERC USRA grant. My hope is to update weekly, if not more often, with reports of what life is like working 9-5 in a lab. I don't want to give any specifics about the position or myself but sufficed to say I just finished second year and I'm in a Clinical Biochemistry stream at my university. My hopes are to apply to write the MCAT this summer and apply to Medical school this upcoming cycle.!!

I would love to hear any of your comments, suggestions for improvement or questions!

PS. here is information about NSERC USRA http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Students-Etudiants/UG-PC/USRA-BRPC_eng.asp .
- it is basically a government program I applied to in order to get funding to work in a lab for the summer months (16 weeks)
