AI Thread Summary
To successfully pursue a research project in neurobiology with a limited background, it's essential to seek collaboration with local experts in the field. Finding a collaborator who possesses the necessary neurobiological skills can provide valuable guidance and access to equipment needed for experiments. Additionally, exploring online resources, workshops, and community programs can help build foundational knowledge without the need for a formal degree. Engaging with local universities or research institutions may also offer opportunities for mentorship and access to lab facilities. Networking within the scientific community can significantly enhance the chances of successfully conducting research in neurobiology.

I have an idea for a research project in neurobiology but I have only a limited background in these fields (I currently work in web development).

Thanks.
