Research & Clinical Hosts

WiN acknowledges that research and clinical hosts play a vital role in delivering a thorough and immersive learning experience for interns in both research and clinical environments. Interns will benefit from guidance as they navigate the complexities of scientific investigation and experimentation, while also gaining exposure to patient care and the practical application of neuroscience in clinical contexts. It is the hosts and their teams that will equip interns with the essentials skills and insights needed to progress in their chosen fields, and contribute to health outcome breakthroughs and advancements.

Serving as a Host

Research and Clinical Hosts play pivotal role in shaping the experience and growth of aspiring neuroscientists. Responsibilities may include guiding interns through complex research methodologies, specific projects, fostering a collaborative and inquisitive environment, allowing them to shadow your work, and providing valuable insights into current neuroscience trends and discoveries.

As members of the research team, interns will receive mentorship and support from the team to cultivate their critical thinking abilities and technical skills. This preparation will pave the way for their future careers as researchers and/or clinicians.
