I would consider serving as (check all that apply):

 

__x__ Thesis Advisor

__x__Thesis Reader

__x__Research Placement (students interested in gaining research experience would be able to work in your laboratory as volunteers or for course credit)

 

Research Interests (It is best if you can describe specifically the kinds of projects you do that students could help work on or the general areas of expertise in which you are willing to advise students):
