Dear Students, Faculty, Administrators, and Community Members,
The Simons Foundation is accepting applications from undergraduate students for the 2025 Shenoy Undergraduate Research Fellowship in Neuroscience (SURFiN). The goal of the SURFiN Program is to spark and sustain interest in neuroscience among undergraduate students who have not had access to research opportunities. Fellowships start in September 2025.
Applications and letters of recommendation are due at 12:00 p.m. (noon) Eastern Time on May 1, 2025. Please see the request for applications (RFA) for details, application instructions, and the location of SURFiN lab opportunities.
Please share this opportunity widely.
Information Session:
We encourage interested undergraduate students to attend a virtual informational webinar on Wednesday, April 16, 2025, 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Students can register for the webinar now.
Program:
SURFiN provides funds for paid, in-person undergraduate research assistantships during the academic year. Fellows may earn up to $7,500 USD at a rate of $25/hour for 10 hours a week over 30 weeks during the academic year. Fellows receive direct mentorship and participate in career development activities, including a virtual coding bootcamp and a scientific symposium in New York City.
Applicants must currently live within commuting distance of a SURFiN lab opportunity. Participating labs are located across the U.S., Canada and Europe.
Please contact neurogrants@simonsfoundation.org with questions about the program.
Regards,
