Maternal Cannabis Lab Application
Hello applicants! The Maternal Cannabis Lab is excited to invite you to apply to join our team.

Research assistantships are available to students. Assistantships are available as part of an HP 290 or 490 Directed Research Course, paid through Federal Work Study (if eligible), or can be done on a volunteer basis. Qualified students from other programs within USC (e.g., psychology, neuroscience) and at other institutions, including recent graduates, are also welcome to apply. 

As a research assistant, you will have the opportunity to work alongside the team and get an overview of qualitative and mixed methods research. Through this experience, you will be able to develop yourself professionally and learn what goes into conducting research focused on substance use and pregnancy. These positions are intended for highly motivated individuals who are looking to develop their skillsets in research methodology. Assistantships are a great way to gain initial exposure to innovative, collaborative research in preparation for medical school and graduate school in psychology, neuroscience and public health. Lab alumni have gone on to graduate school at some of the leading institutions and programs in the nation.

We prioritize assistantships to students who are interested in committing to: two consecutive semesters of volunteering and 10 hours of volunteering per week. There are also opportunities for advancement in the lab after a one-year commitment. 

In addition to the application, please submit your updated CV/resume to our research coordinator, Erin at: ering@usc.edu.

Good luck! :)
