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

Study the roles of Genetic/environmental factors in preeclampsia (pregnancy induced maternal syndromes). Learn basic techniques of molecular biology such as PCR, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry etc.

We study how the NuRD complex contributes to the silencing of fetal hemoglobin. My lab uses a combination of structural biology, biophysics, and tissue culture assays to understand how proteins bind to one another and to DNA. Our goal is … 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 conduct electrophysiological data acquisition for research projects. Our research examines the neurobiological underpinnings of adolescent-onset neuropsychiatric disorders using electrophysiological recordings. The student will … 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

Interested in qualitative research, sport marketing, or basketball? Undergraduate student research assistants are needed to assist with a qualitative research project being undertaken by a UNC faculty member.
