Hello,
I'm currently an undergraduate student (sophomore) and am contacting psychology professors at my university, trying to get some research experience in areas of interest to me. I have a fairly good friend who just finished her clinical PhD. coursework at the same school and did extensive research in subject x, most likely with this professor (she's the only profesor that does research in subject x at this university). Said friend has told me a lot about her work with subject x, which is the main reason I have an interest in it, actually. Would it be appropriate to mention this in my email expressing my interest in working in this lab (either mentioning said friend by name or not), or to just leave that part out?
Thanks.
