Getting Involved with the
FERN Lab

Undergraduate Research Assistants
We are full for Fall 2025, so we are not currently taking new research assistants. When we have openings we will post here, if you'd like to be considered in the future, please fill out this form.

Graduate Students
I will likely be reviewing Ph.D. student applications in the 2025-2026 cycle (for Fall 2026 enrollment)*. I will consider applications through the Psychology Ph.D. program (Developmental or Biobehavioral track) or through the Neuroscience Graduate Program.
See below for note and helpful resources related to the graduate school application process.

Postdoctoral Researchers
I am open to mentoring postdocs on F or K awards or other training grants. Please reach out if you are interested in discussing opportunities.

​*Note: Prospective students are welcome to email me with questions about the lab or the application process. However, this is not expected or required. Whether or not you email me will have no bearing on the review of your application or likelihood of admission. Out of fairness to all applicants, I am unable to meet individually with any applicant before the application deadline.
