Want to really stand out?

Remember that you can freely create your own professional website! Visit sites.google.com to start your own. It's free and really easy. This may be helpful because you can create a sub-page for your research poster that you're about to present (or put it on your lab's website). Professional websites are rarely done, so know this is an avenue that is only beginning.

You get to set the narrative for your professional self.
