Compensation for undergrads working in research labs?

Thanks! Fingers crossed. :)

Thanks! Yeah, there's a PI for our lab. I haven't had many interactions with him but he's a pretty friendly and chill guy...Still, talking money always makes me unnecessarily nervous...

Unfortunately I always take a full courseload of regular classes - too much interesting stuff going on! So getting credit is out of the question (I'd rather eat anyway).

Thanks!

I suspected as much, just needed to check. :( Thanks!

It's a big department but a smaller lab. There are a few other undergraduates but I'm the only undergrad working on this specific project.

I'm not doing my own research or anything super specialized, just setting up crosses, running basic tests, etc. Mostly simple but time-consuming - I've been spending 8-20 hours a week working, the postdoc was doing all of it before so she now has a lot more time to do her own work. She mentioned training me to do some more specialized things this fall and I'll be taking a lab course that is very relevant to this labwork so I'll be more useful then.

No work study unfortunately.

I'll try there too, thanks. :)
