How to Connect to Research Professionals

There is always too much pressure set in this scenario. If it is your first day you might feel anxious that you will have no idea what you’re doing and disappoint the researcher. If it is not anxiety you’re feeling, maybe it is stress that first impressions are essential to set a proper start to how the rest of your lab experience will go. It could be something completely different that you do not even know how you feel about it, but the feeling in your gut is definitely there or you have not even started the process and you are lost. Well it is all OKAY because your feelings are valid, everyone has felt them, and there is a way to work through it!
