I enjoy research because.... "I get to isolate specific problems in our world and start working toward solutions."

How did you first get interested in undergraduate research at UK?

"I applied for a research position advertised in my college."

How long have you been engaged in undergraduate research?

"I have been working on research for two semesters."

What advice would you give to other UK students thinking about doing research?

"There is so much exciting research going on here at UK and professors are exciting to get undergraduates involved. When you hear about research you are interested in and want to be involved in, do not be afraid to reach out and ask to get involved."
