Technicians
We are hiring! Organized, creative problem solvers with at least one year of experience in a rodent neuroscience lab will be especially competitive. Email CV to Dr. Shansky r.shansky [at] northeastern.edu.
Graduate Students
We are recruiting! Providing mentorship and training for graduate students is a top priority of the lab, and we seek students interested in conducting interdisciplinary behavioral neuroscience research.

Undergraduate Researchers
We accept undergraduate students from the BNS, Psychology, Biology, and Engineering majors who seek to further their understanding of neuroscience and gain valuable lab experience. Students may join the lab as a directed study, work study, co-op, or volunteer. Interested students should complete this form and we will reach out if we would like to chat further. We are currently full for Fall ‘26.
