Student Visitors/Research Volunteers
Student Volunteer positions for undergraduates and recent college graduates are available for the Spring and Summer terms for 2025. These positions are within McLean’s Laboratory for Affective and Translational Neuroscience, directed by Diego A. Pizzagalli, Ph.D. Volunteers assist lab members utilizing various methodologies (e.g., brain imaging, electrophysiology, clinical interviews) to study emotional and cognitive processing in both healthy and psychiatric populations, primarily major depression.
Students who are not in the Belmont/Boston area can apply to be a Remote Visitor.
Review of applications is ongoing.

Resources for Applying
We understand that not everyone has access to the same type of resources and materials as they head into job applications during / post college. As part of our DEI initiatives, some of our former and current Research Assistants (RAs) have put together a few resources for individuals looking to apply to RA and Student Visitor positions to promote a more equitable application process.
