I plan to concentrate in neuroscience and linguistics, with some focus on cognitive neuroscience as well as neurobiology. My question is, how difficult is it to find research opportunities in these fields? I’ve heard it’s relatively easy to find research in linguistics, fairly difficult to find research to find research in cognitive neuroscience, and somewhat easy to find research in the more wet lab side of neuroscience–how accurate do you guys think this is?

I’m between Brown and JHU at the moment, and I know the research opportunities at Brown won’t quite match up with those at Hopkins, but I really did like the atmosphere, location, student body, and curriculum much more at Brown…my only concern right now before I decide is research opportunities, which could be a make-or-break for me.
