Support the STARTneuro Undergraduate Research Program at UC San Diego

STARTneuro at UC San Diego trains, mentors and funds transfer students as they begin pursuing an undergraduate degree in a neuroscience-related field. This critical program provides support for new Tritons entering a world-renowned research institution to ensure they have the skills, mentorship and experience to start a career trajectory in neuroscience. STARTneuro is essential for a diverse and inclusive neuroscience field.

Recognizing the impact of STARTneuro, an anonymous graduate has committed $30,000 in funds to accelerate the launch of STARTneuro’s fundraising! The stories of STARTneuro students’ success inspired this gift to catalyze future success.


"I know what a great university UC San Diego is, and I still value the things I learned there, especially while working in a biology lab. My father attended community college before transferring to a state university, so I am drawn to the fact that STARTneuro offers such amazing opportunities to transfer students. Friends and family members have or had bipolar disorder, Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, so I know that STARTneuro is supporting research into important topics. Finally, providing hands-on research experiences — as STARTneuro does — is a proven way to support students’ paths into biomedical careers."

"STARTneuro is the best thing I’ve ever done in my life. I love what I am doing, and I wouldn’t be where I am now if not for this program.”
