<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><strong>How did you find out that you could do research in your field as an undergraduate?</strong><br>My department (American Studies) approached me with an application to apply for the Honors Section which involved a year-long research venture.<br><br><strong>How did you decide on your research project?</strong><br>I changed my topic a few times and finally landed on my topic through critical analysis of my family dynamic.<br><br><strong>Who did you seek out as a faculty mentor? How did you know that would be the right person? Was your mentor easy to approach?</strong><br>I love everyone in my department so it would have been very difficult for me to pick a faculty mentor. I left it up to our advisor to place me with whomever she felt was best.<br><br><strong>What was your research project?</strong><br>My research project looked into the issues of gender, preference, tradition and socialization practices within the Nigerian-Igbo community particularly amongst sibling sets born and raised within the United States.<br><br><strong>How did you know about presenting your work at URCAD? Was the application difficult?</strong><br>I had attended URCAD a few years before and really enjoyed the experience. The application process was relatively easy. It was made to be easy by the facilitators and I am very thankful for that.<br><br><strong>Were you nervous about preparing and delivering an oral presentation to the UMBC community? What help did you have preparing? How many people came to your presentation?</strong><br>I was most certainly nervous. To put myself at ease, I attempted to practice on friends but soon realized that method was highly ineffective because I was too comfortable with them. My whole department (which I love so much) attended my presentation as well as a few other students and friends.<br><br><strong>What else were you involved in on campus during the time you worked on your research? Did you have time for anything other than course work and research?</strong><br>Well, including my class load, I was also the President of the American Studies Council of Majors. I made sure I had time for other things such as leisure reading and interacting with family as well as friends.<br><br><strong>What are your plans for after UMBC?</strong><br>I plan on taking the LSAT's in December and apply to law schools next year. I hope to become a Family Lawyer and Child Advocate.<br><br><strong>Do you plan to do anything that builds on the research you did last year?</strong><br>I am deeply interested in cultural studies as a whole. I hope to look into a lot of that on my own just for my own knowledge. If there is a way to incorporate that into my work or educational experience, that would be even better.<br><br><strong>What advice do you have for other undergraduate about the research opportunities at UMBC?</strong><br>Take advantage of all avenues on campus. There are so many resources at your disposal and it is up to you to seek them out. Our school is known for its emphasis on research which translates to there being an abundance of support on campus. Do not limit yourself to any one source... do not be afraid to tap into anything.<br><br>Read more about Ngeri's research, "The Effects of Patriarchy and Migration on Nigerian-Igbo Culture Sibling Sets within the United States" at the link below.<br></div>

<Tagline>Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!</Tagline>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><strong>When and how did you find out that you could do independent research work as a UMBC undergraduate?</strong><br>UMBC is a school that is very much focused on advancing undergraduate research. Therefore by enrolling at UMBC, I knew I would have an excellent opportunity to do hands-on research and be able to work on a project of my own. Also, as a Meyerhoff Scholar, I was encouraged to find a lab of my interest.<br><br><strong>How did you find a mentor and decide on a project? How did you know this was the project you wanted to do?</strong><br>I knew I wanted to look for a lab on campus since it would allow more time for me to do research. I started by browsing through the research profiles of professors on the UMBC Biology and Chemistry Department websites and contacting the ones whose research seemed appealing to me. I kept my options open and talked to several professors in each department. Eventually, I decided to work with Dr. Lindahl since I had never worked in a lab that focused on the genetic aspects of an organism and wanted explore research areas that I was not familiar with. We worked together to find a project that was suitable for me.<br><br><strong>What academic background did you have before you started on this research?</strong><br>Before joining my current lab, I had the opportunity to work in two different labs focused on two different areas of research. So I had a basic understanding of lab technique and environment. As for the course load, I had taken basic courses required for a Biochemistry major. During my sophomore year (the year I joined my lab), I took Genetics and Cell Biology both of which were very useful in understanding my research project. However, having said that, I don't think anyone should be discouraged or intimidated from working in a lab just because they believe they will not be able to understand the information. With time and enough literary research, anyone can understand the concept behind a research project and, in some cases, even help you study for your current or future classes.<br><br><strong>What is your advice to other students?</strong><br>I would advise others to look for a lab that not only interests them research wise but also creates a comfortable environment for them to work in. It is important to have the freedom to ask as many questions as necessary to gain a better understanding of your project and the best way to achieve this is to have mentors who encourage your curiosity. Support from your mentor combined with genuine effort on your part can make research a very enjoyable experience. Also, time management is necessary as well as flexibility in your lab work. Working in a lab, especially during the school year, can be difficult because of time limitations. Therefore, looking into how you will incorporate lab work into your schedule is helpful. I found working in a lab on campus to be more convenient as it allowed more time for me to do research instead of commuting.<br><br><strong>What are your career goals?</strong><br>I plan to pursue an MD/PhD after graduation. The areas of Oncology and Neuroscience are very appealing to me and I hope to pursue these fields in my future. <br><br><span>Read more about Reema 's research, "Incorporation of Tagged and Untagged L4 Ribosomal Protein into Ribosomes" at the link below.</span><br></div>
