CLBB is Hiring!
 
As the intersection of law and neuroscience rapidly evolves, the Harvard MGH Center for Law, Brain & Behavior seeks to hire full-time, paid Research Associates and Undergraduate Research Assistants for the summer 2022 academic term (June - August 2022).
 
Research Associates and Research Assistants will play an integral role in exciting Center initiatives concerning the developing brain, the aging brain, and many additional topics. Current undergraduates and law school students are eligible for the Research Assistant positions. Compensation will be based on experience, and start/end dates are flexible. Summer RAs must be available for at least 10 weeks of the summer to be eligible.

Research Associates and Research Assistants will report to Dr. Kinscherff; will work with CLBB Co-Directors Dr. Judith Edersheim and Dr. Bruce Price, as well as with CLBB affiliated faculty in both law and neuroscience; and will support research in the Project on Law and Applied Neuroscience, a joint program with the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School.
 
All inquiries should be sent to CLBB Project Manager, Emily Rehmet at erehmet@mgh.harvard.edu.

Applications will be reviewed starting on February 1, and on a rolling basis thereafter.

Prior CLBB Interns
The Center for Law, Brain and Behavior regularly engages students to advance its mission. Student research interns come from diverse backgrounds and have included undergraduates, law students, medical students, and post-docs.

In the 2020-21 academic and summer term, CLBB hosted 17 students at schools such as Harvard College, Tufts University, Duke University, Brown University, Yale Law School and Harvard Law School. In Summer 2021, the center received 138 applications for five available slots, with an additional slot in support of Dr. Edersheim’s work.
