Post-baccalaureate Research Training Program
Neuroscience of Emotion
Research training for post-baccalaureate students is available in a sophisticated, state-of-art psychophysiological research
laboratory at the Center for the Study of Emotion and Attention (CSEA) at the University of Florida. These studies involve
psychophysiological recording in human subjects (electrode placement and measurement of a variety of bio-electric signals,
including heart, skin, brain waves and reflexes) and use multiple computer systems for data collection, scoring, and analysis.
Training involves psychophysiological hookup, conducting experimental sessions, entering and reducing data, assisting in all
phases of laboratory research with human subjects. Current research studies investigate emotion, anxiety, and fear.
The successful candidate is able to work independently and motivated to learn about bio-behavioral research, with a bachelor's degree
in psychology or related field, 1200+ GREs, and an undergraduate GPA of 3.5 or higher. These research training positions
provide an excellent research background for those planning to attend graduate school and pursue a scientific career.
To apply, please send a copy of your CV, a brief statement of research interests and goals, and ask 3 referees to send letters of recommendation to:
