We love to hear that prospective high school students are interested in research and in our work! Unfortunately, because our work takes place in a secure research area and involves hazardous materials, there are many logistical challenges related to building access, training requirements, and liability for volunteers — particularly for volunteers under age 18. As a result, we are not able to take on high school student volunteers at this time.
