I am trying to find a paid research gig for my upcoming gap year.
I've been emailing a BUNCH of PIs at the NIH: either no reply, or sorry, we don't have any positions right now.
Have also been starting to cold e-mail... but it's tricky because I am taking one gap year and I don't know how willing PIs are to hire someone for such a timeframe.
Any advice appreciated... I'm getting pretty desperate. Even considering taking an unpaid position in a lab at this point, but to be honest I will be pretty salty if I have to because I do have substantial research experience(but you know, you gotta do what you gotta do).
