Undergraduate students

*We are currently accepting undergrad RA applications for summer and fall 2026

The BAR Lab seeks motivated and enthusiastic undergraduate research assistants who can commit >6 hours a week in exchange for course credit (Psych 498). Undergrad RAs participate in a wide range of research-related tasks, including training animals to self-administer drugs, intracranial surgeries, and collecting electrophysiology data. RAs who demonstrate independence are welcome to propose research projects or take on a leadership role in an ongoing project. RAs are expected to attend and contribute to weekly lab meetings.

If you are interested in volunteering in the lab, please email Dr. Henricks (angela.henricks@wsu.edu). Include your CV and why you are interested in the lab.
