Lab Volunteers

We use SignUpGenius to signup lab volunteers- just to make sure you don't drive to the lab needlessly.  You will need to contact Lynn to receive the link for the parking pass for Miami.  The 2026 signup will be released by the training / data event on Feb 14.

Lab Training Videos

Thanks to Zak Schultz, one of the 2020 awesome graduate students, we now have training videos for each of the lab stations.
