 # Join Us
 
+The Neuroinformatics and Brain Connectivity Laboratory is always looking for exceptional students and personnel to join the team. **We are currently looking for graduate students for the 2018-2019 academic year and we are still accepting applications from undergraduate students to work on various projects.** More information on these training opportunities can be found below.
+
+## Graduate Students
+Located in Miami, FIU is Florida’s fastest growing public research university, the fourth largest university in the nation, and one of nation’s largest Hispanic-Serving Institutions. The Cognitive Neuroscience Program is part of a campus-wide initiative to further develop brain research and brain education through interdisciplinary collaborations.
+
+At FIU, the Neuroinformatics and Brain Connectivity (NBC) Laboratory, directed by Dr. Angela Laird (Department of Physics) and co-directed by Dr. Matthew Sutherland (Department of Psychology), provides students with a truly interdisciplinary training environment. The NBC Laboratory focuses on understanding activity within and interactions between brain regions in healthy individuals and those diagnosed with psychiatric disorders and diseases. Research in the NBC Laboratory is centered around magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with emphasis on the development of neuroimaging data analysis tools, the impact of drug abuse on human brain function, and the brain mechanisms associated with student learning during STEM training. Funded through grants from the NIH and NSF, the NBC Laboratory is seeking motivated and energetic individuals to join the group.
+
+We are currently looking for graduate students in either physics or psychology. Applications to FIU's Cognitive Neuroscience doctoral program in Psychology for the 2018-2019 academic year are due in December, 2017. More information about the Cognitive Neuroscience doctoral program and admission for the upcoming academic year is available at [http://cn.fiu.edu](). Applicants to the Physics graduate program may learn more at [https://physics.fiu.edu/graduate-program/]().
+
+## Undergraduate Students
+Undergraduate students working in the NBC Lab may contribute to one of several ongoing projects. These research activities may include assisting with literature searches and/or the collection, processing, and analysis of neuroimaging (fMRI) data. As this typically necessitates extensive training, a commitment of at least three semesters is needed to take full advantage of these research opportunities.
