Looking for a MSc Student Interested in Mental Health and One Welfare to Apply ASAP // For Senior Undergrads

Hi folks,

I’m looking for a domestic student to apply for a Mitacs/Mental Health Research Canada internship and MSc looking at dairy and beef farmer mental health (and how it relates to cattle health and welfare).

If you know of any keen students, could you please let them know or let me know? They would need to apply to the university today (or early next week) but I have the Mitacs/MHRC application almost complete.

Thanks so much,

Meagan
