- Many Loyola undergraduate students collaborate on research in the CAN lab with other undergraduate and graduate students and Drs. Morrison and Silton.
- Interest in working in the lab is very high and preference is given to students interested in pursuing research careers in psychology or neuroscience, going to graduate school, and those enrolled in the interdisciplinary neuroscience minor.
- To participate in the CAN Lab you must have and maintain at least a 3.5 GPA, and be willing to commit at least 10 hours a week for two to three academic years.
- Students are also expected to be enrolled for independent study course credit each semester (e.g., Psyc 369/370, 397, 399; Neurosci 302, etc.) the work in the lab.
- Most students apply for (and frequently receive) LUROP funding for their research (e.g., Carbon Fellowship Program, Carroll and Adelaide Johnson Scholarship, Mulcahy Scholars Program, Provost Fellowship, or other extramural funding) and we have other students who come to us through the WISER, Research Mentoring Program, and McNair Scholars Program.
- We typically recruit students during the spring and summer for the following year, preferably before their sophomore year, or from classes taught by Drs. Morrison or Silton.
