Program gives undergrads from Peru lab experience
Kenyi Saito-Diaz, a graduate student in Dr. Ethan Lee's lab, is also the co-director of the Research Experience for Peruvian Undergraduates (REPU), a program that provides Peruvian undergraduates with opportunities to become scientists. REPU helps the brightest Peruvian students get internships in U.S. laboratories for three to six months. The experience makes them better candidates for graduate programs abroad and increase their chances of being accepted.
