i really enjoyed taking this class! i was already in professor elbaum's lab and asked him if i could to research for credit the following semester. it's been pretty challenging to keep up with the work considering that i was learning about a lot of topics for the first time + working with graduate level people, but the professor and my PI were pretty understanding and helpful. it helps a lot to communicate effectively whenever you do any sort of research, so make sure you keep everyone in the loop with maybe an email thread or over slack. i loved doing research for credit since there's a lot more freedom with the assignments, which are more like tasks to further your application, than obviously other courses that have strict curriculum.
