@pipettestan This is NGG, neuro

Let me preface this by saying I am an undergraduate here and my thesis mentor has some ties with the admissions committee, so don't fret yet if you haven't heard from the program, but I just received my invitation to interview at Penn ☺️ Hopefully they send more emails soon!

@gliagirl I'm a current undergrad at Penn (Senior BBB major), and I'd like to know what you think of the NGG program. I work in a lab with 2 current NGG students who have completely opposite perspectives (one absolutely hates the program), so I'd appreciate any thoughts you might be willing offer- thanks!
