Do you happen to know if the Brown-NIH Neuro decisions came out separately from the Brown Neuro interviews?

I know that the Brown faculty met and made their decisions yesterday. So I'm assuming they will be sending out invites today also? But in terms of consideration, the two programs are distinct.

Anyone know when Cornell Neuro and CMU CNBC are going to send interview invites?

For CMU CNBC they told me that for the PNC they send for interviews mid December. I am expecting this to be out this week.

Which program at UCSD did you get an interview for?

I didn't get an interview for UCSD. I got one at another school. I was just hoping for UCSD since it says "Under Review."

Email. I just noticed that it was an email from my POI that looked a lot like an official email... So I confirmed that an official email is to follow. Sorry for the confusion.

Ah cool, thank you. I'd been told by my school's career center to not contact profs beforehand, were we supposed to for this program? Oops ?

Haha I think it depends from prof to prof. But I'm currently a postbac at NIH and my POI is on the same floor as me.

Ah gotcha. What kind of research are you interested in doing?

AHHHHHHH I got another one from Harvard PiNNNNNNNNNNNN.

Their interview dates are Jan 17 to 20!

[glialstar]

Just got a call from Brown Neuro! First one, honestly so relieved, its one of my top choices!

[neuro2019]

UMichigan (Neuroscience Direct) finished reviewing their applications last week and extended their invitations by phone last Friday. The few who couldn't be reached by phone will be emailed this week, but otherwise, the admissions coordinator I spoke to said that another round of interview invitations will not be expected...

A friend of mine in the program said the admissions director is still sending out emails. I am not very optimistic tbh but at least wait till the end of the day EST. Let's pray for each other

If I recall correctly, the last weekend in Jan + 1st two weekends in Feb 

[neurogen]

Waiting to hear back from Upenn (CAMB), Princeton (Neuro), UC Davis (IGG/Neuro), UCSD (Neuro), Texas A&M (Neuro), Duke (Neuro). Already heard about Duke invites being sent out but would love any updates if anyone has heard back from the others so I can stop constantly checking my emails!
