Is anyone's lab still open to accepting an incoming-freshman?

I'm really frustrated because the lab I thought I'd be working with with ghosted me a week ago and now I have two weeks to find another lab. I'm very passionate about research--I have wet-lab and data science experience from high school and was really looking forward to participating in research at hopkins :(

I've sent a lot of emails out to professors who said they were accepting through ForagerOne but none of them have gotten back to me. Am I doing something wrong? I would really appreciate a lead or any advice, thank you!
