"Interview was made to be stress free. I had a first year student and 2 doctors ( one of them is into Immunology research). I wasn't ask an ethical question (I was prepared for ethics though). Surprisingly, this was the first school that I was asked about my research project. I wasn't really expecting this b/c this's not a research focused univ. It was ok though. " Report Response
