Undergraduate students actively participate in the general operations of our lab. Any UConn Storrs undergraduate students from any major and class year, with limited to zero research experience, can join our lab. As an undergraduate research assistant in our lab, you can earn 2 to 3 credits in exchange for 6 to 9 hours of research work per week in our lab. Your responsibilities include annotating frame-by-frame data and transcribing experiment audios.  Additionally, you will participate in community engagement work, including creating infographics and planning an event that takes place at the end of the semester for parents of children who are D/deaf and hard of hearing. Lastly, you will partake in our weekly Journal Reading where you amongst other undergraduate students, graduate students, research scientist, primary investigator, and lab manager will discuss empirical research papers that are related to our experiments in our lab. All of these responsibilities are coupled with our fun out of the lab bonding activities where we get to informally connect with each other over exciting non-lab related events once or twice a semester.

As such, we are looking for 2 undergraduate research assistants to join our lab in Fall 2026. If this is of interest to you, please complete the following form by 11:59pm on Monday, April 27th 2026: https://forms.office.com/r/BLfbRbqxHh (use your UConn email address and login information). If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at thehellolab@gmail.com. We no longer have any openings for Summer 2026.
