Undergraduate Students
We are looking for enthusiastic, well-organized students with excellent interpersonal skills! If you are a student at UCR and would like to obtain research experience in our lab, we ask that you fill out our application form.
Previous research experience is not required. This is a great opportunity for highly motivated students who are curious about community-engaged research and/or interested in applying to graduate school, medical school, etc.
Prospective Graduate Students
If you are interested in our lab’s research, please contact Dr. Bernardette Pinetta personally to express your interest. Dr. Pinetta selects graduate students first and foremost on the basis of research fit, so please read the lab’s publications closely, paying special attention to recent publications as a guide to the lab’s current focus. All are welcome to apply, and we are especially interested in students from backgrounds that are traditionally underrepresented in higher education.
