I'm trying to get into this guy's lab next summer, because he's awesome.

Fuck yeah! You be under NDA or can you keep me updated on the shit you find out? Is his funding from academia? Can you tell us everything cool you learn?

He's a researcher at OHSU, in the department I hope to go to grad school in. The earliest I might get in with a researcher is next summer, so I won't have anything particularly interesting to report until then, most likely, although there is a small possibility I'll get into a lab earlier. I'm sure I'll be allowed to talk about whatever research I end up doing; we're usually allowed to talk about it in terms a layperson would understand, just not share formal results tables or publish anything.
