August 2011 - Reflections from a High School Student Summer Intern
"This summer I had the opportunity to work in Dr. Michel's lab for three weeks. Everyone in the lab was extremely supportive and were constantly teaching me about the psychology field. I was able to learn a lot about infant handedness and development, a topic I knew little about previously. Dr. Michel is an extremely knowledgable professor and it was a pleasure to talk to him about his work. The different research projects going on in the lab such as construction, tool use, and bimanual coordination were very interesting, and the graduate students were extremely helpful in explaining their projects to me in great detail. My time spent in the lab has greatly furthered my curiosity for psychology and psychobiology. Working in the Michel lab influenced my decision to study psychology and neuroscience in college. My time spent in the lab was intellectually stimulating, as well as very entertaining and I am very grateful for this wonderful experience."

July 2010 - "Ethan"
"I really enjoyed participating in the study. It gave me the opportunity to watch his development from month to month. It was exciting to see him grow and be able to accomplish things that he wasn't able to do the month before. I think he really enjoyed it as well - nothing beats playing with a bunch of different toys for an hour. You and the other staff were terrific and related so well to Ethan. Thanks for the chance to participate in the study. If there are ever any future studies that we can help with don't hesitate to give me a call or email."

July 2010 - "Lexi"
"We looked forward to coming to UNCG each month to play and learn at the development center. It was such a great experience to watch our daughter develop and improve her fine motor skills each month. We really enjoyed participating in such a wonderful study!"

P.S. We are expecting a baby boy in November. We definitely will be contacting you for him to participate as well!
