The Hantman lab studies how the brain produces skilled movement using a variety of techniques including live neuronal imaging and behavioral recordings. The lab generates rich and complex datasets that we analyze using state of the art machine learning & … Read more
The Physical Mathematics Lab (PML) (Intro Video) offers a wide range of interdisciplinary problems that find motivation in very diverse fields, including soft matter, fluid mechanics, biophysics and quantum mechanics. One of PML’s themes is the study of new Hydrodynamic … Read more
The Pegard LAB (Applied Physical Sciences) is recruiting an undergraduate student to build an initial prototype for a portable biometric monitor. The student’s primary responsibility will be adapting our circuit design into a compact PCB board. Thus, candidates with a … Read more
How do new species form? The formation of new species – ‘speciation’ – is still not fully understood, and remains a fruitful avenue of research. Here, we propose to investigate the implication of the evolution of genetic architecture (i.e., the … Read more
We are looking for an undergraduate to continue advancing computational tools for optimization and design. The project has been advanced significantly by two previous undergraduates and has a good code base, but code development and enhancement will be a key … Read more
Motivated undergraduate students are invited to join our Lab, the Neurocognition and Imaging Research Laboratory (NIRL) to learn functional and structural brain imaging and electrophysiological data acquisition methods. Our research examines the neurobiological underpinnings of adolescent-onset neuropsychiatric disorders, using magnetic … Read more
Research in the Lai Lab is at the interface of mucus, immunology, nanotechnology, biomaterials, biophysics, bioengineering and modeling. We are currently working in three primary areas: (1) engineering antibodies for improved protection against pathogens and sperm at mucosal surfaces; (2) … Read more
The Data-Driven EnviroLab (“DDL”) at UNC-Chapel Hill is seeking to fill three student assistant positions to contribute a range of projects aimed to bring quantitative rigor and analysis to environmental policymaking. Research projects include measuring urban environmental performance; assessing sub-national … Read more
We are imaging the cochlea of the inner ear of gerbils using light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM). This new imaging technique allows for a 3D visualization of an entire cochlea and observation of cells that are fluorescently labeled by immunological … Read more
