Volunteering at a lab

<p>Sorry, I don't know where to post this...</p>

<p>I want to do research with a professor, but there are lots of undergrads helping with many professors, and I don't understand a lot of what the professors are researching. How do I get my foot in the door?</p>

<p>well you have to know what you’re interested in :p</p>

<p>Okay, well I found lots of biochem professors and biology professors, but I simply don’t understand the research they’re doing. One professor was researching like a specific enzyme on a neurotransmitter or something…I’m going to ask some science teachers to explain what they’re working on, but I’m just not that advanced. Should I just find someone else?</p>
