134 Research Reflection by Marissa Larkin

Faculty Mentor: Sheila Crowell (Psychology, University of Utah)

My undergraduate research experience was completed in the Child Adaptation and Neurodevelopment (CAN) Lab and was amazing! Assisting in research as an undergraduate allowed me to learn significantly more about the scientific process, helped me decide I wanted to go to graduate school, and ultimately made me fall in love with research. Taking what I had learned about research within my various courses throughout my undergraduate career gave me a glimpse into the world of research, but actually conducting research was a whole new world that I am thrilled I had the chance to experience and continue working with.
