Abstract
Successful enrollment in and completion of graduate programs requires a constellation of skills. Students must be prepared to plan and execute experiments, present their findings both verbally and in manuscript form and interact effectively with senior scientists in the field of their choice. In this Mentoring Environment Grant (MEG) I will mentor four undergraduate students, (David Patty, Matthew Bailey, *Iulianna Sambur and Mo Lee) as they develop skills in study design, data analysis, manuscript preparation, presentation and networking while identifying genetic factors that modulate protein levels and influence Alzheimer’s disease.
