Graduate

Please note that at this time the lab is taking applications for graduate students for the 2024-2025 school year – application dates in Dec 2023.

We are specifically looking for future students who are interested in using different neuroimaging methods (fMRI, EEG, fNiRS, etc) to study multisensory processing in a basic science framework, as well as in development, aging, and neurodiverse groups. We are also explicitly encouraging applications from equity deserving groups, including but not limited to visible minorities, LGBTQ+, neurodiverse individuals, and otherwise historically underrepresented groups.

The lab typically takes students through the Psychology program or the program in Neuroscience. Prospective psychology students should apply through Cognitive, Developmental, and Brain Sciences, and I will on rare occasion take on Clinical Science and Psychopathology students.

See below for Graduate Student Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).

Q: Are you taking applications for the 2024-2025 school year?

A: Yes

Postdoctorals

We are always looking for qualified postdoctoral researchers to join the lab. If you are interested in pursuing a postdoctoral, please contact our Principal Investigator directly at ryan.andrew.stevenson@gmail.com.
