Welcome to the Duke Neuroscience Peer Mentoring Program 2026-2027!
Are you interested in mentoring an underclassmen neuroscience student this year? Would you like to share your wisdom and experience on how to find a research laboratory, conduct an independent study research project, select neuroscience courses, apply for graduate/medical school, and navigate neuroscience resources at Duke? If yes, we encourage you to apply to be a mentor with the Neuroscience Majors’ Union and Summer Neuroscience Program’s Peer Mentoring Program!
Not only will this opportunity provide you with formal leadership and mentorship training in research and academic settings, but also allow you to make a genuine and lasting impression on an underclassmen at Duke.
After carefully matching mentees and mentors, the Program will host monthly dinner talks and social opportunities to facilitate bonding between the pairs. Resources will also be provided to mentees and mentors throughout the year to ensure a supportive experience for both.
For the 2026-27 academic year, applications for the Peer Mentoring Program have closed. Mentor Mentee pairings soon to be announced!
