Getting involved in research at Stanford is a great way to dive into a topic of interest.
If you have an addition or fix to this list, let us know.
Also check out the faculty page. Some faculty are more open to cold-emailing than others; we recommend you first try applying to advertised lab openings. What can also help is to do well in a class with a professor of interest.
