Join the Lab

Prospective Undergraduate Students

The Castle Lab welcomes undergraduate research assistants! Students do not need to have previous research experience to join the lab. However, we ask for a minimum time commitment of 9 hours a week for two semesters. Additionally, students need to be currently enrolled at the University of Rochester. Students have the option to earn course credit for their time as an RA. 

Duties as a research assistant include helping with data collection, transcribing and coding data, participating in recruitment, and attending weekly lab meetings. 

The Castle Lab is currently recruiting new research assistants for Fall 2026. Interested students should fill out the application here
