Post-Doctoral Fellowship Opportunities - NOW RECRUITING FOR AUGUST/FALL 2025

We invite applications for post-doctoral training in clinical addiction science starting August 2025. Funding for one or two positions is provided by NIDA (Integrative Training in the Neurobiology of Addictive Behaviors) and NIGMS (Clinical Therapeutics) T32 training grants. Click here for details. All inquiries should be directed to Andrea King, Ph.D.

 Student Externship Opportunities - Available Summer 2025

Our lab occasionally offers volunteer externship positions, which in the past have included summer projects, as well as research experience (5-10 hours/week) for UChicago undergraduates during the school year. As a student researcher, you may be involved in participant recruitment and screening, data entry and management, and other supportive study tasks.

​Please contact Emma Brett, Ph.D. for inquiries regarding setting up an externship. Availability of these opportunities is generally based on the availability of staff to train and supervise.
