Hi all! I am planning to apply to the Lumiere program in neuroscience, but my family does not have sufficient funds to pay for the program. If there is anyone who has gone through this funded program before, could you please provide tips on filling out the application?
Programs where you pay to participate are not great - check out this Reddit thread about Lumiere: reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/lp3me8/lumiereeducationscam/
If you would like to participate neuroscience research, I would email neuroscience faculty at your local university in order to get started. Explain to them your interests, your experience (if any - most mentors will just appreciate your ambition), and what you would gain from their mentorship. Hope this helps.

@RinTu would have a scholarship so it's still pretty good, but yeah still look for opportunities where you don't have to pay
