Thank you so much for your advice aberrant!! That was very helpful. I emailed her emphasizing my interests in her lab and she also sent me a paper to read. I read the paper and replied to her back asking certain questions about the paper and her future research on that. Now, she has replied to me saying that
"Thanks for your continued interest. Right now, we are still trying to figure out <.......>. Since these projects are moving quickly, I am having the students focus on these. I will send you some reviews which I believe are good starting points for any research before reading detailed peer-reviewed papers. I will try to talk to you tomorrow if that is OK.
I am not sure if you are corresponding with other faculty as well since you have interest in neuroscience as well. The reason I bring this up is because students are recruited directly into our labs without rotations, that saves us time and the students settle in quickly. If you have other labs also that are of your interest, feel free to let me know, mainly because I am looking to recruit directly to my lab."
If she is going to call me and speak, what will she be probably asking me? I reiterated that I was interested in her lab and that I would be glad if she will consider my application and take me to work in her lab. I was interested in one more lab in the same university and when I contacted the professor of that lab, he said he was unsure of taking on any graduate students for now. Should I tell her about this?
Thank you very much in advance!!
