<p>how does one get involved with research at UVA? i know that you can always take a psychology research class, but how do you get involved as an undergraduate (rising second-year) at the med school?</p>
<p>I would like the answer to this too. can anyone help?</p>

<p>Some professors invite promising students to join their research teams that are funding by external grants. That’s how my son got involved: a professor who kept his eye out for candidates. In the case of that group, it’s an actual job, not a course or a grant of his own.</p>
<p>It’s good to know who those professors are who are interested in UGs and consider making contact, or discuss with your adviser.</p>
<p>Also, here are examples of some past Harrison Research Award winners in [url=<a href=“http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=14686]2011[/url”>http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=14686]2011[/url</a>], [url=<a href=“http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=11088l]2010[/url”>http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=11088l]2010[/url</a>] & [url=<a href=“http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=8160]2009[/url”>http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=8160]2009[/url</a>].</p>
