Postdoctoral Openings
We are interested in recruiting postdocs to undertake a wide variety of data analysis, experimental, and
computational modeling projects in the lab. See
here for details about one such openings.
Graduate Students
We have a wide variety of clearly defined and exciting computational modeling, data analysis, and
experimental projects and are looking to recruit graduate students to undertake them. If you are currently
a graduate student at Virginia Tech and are interested in joining the lab, please contact Dr. Vijayan
(neuron99 AT vt.edu) to discuss potential projects and to set up a lab rotation.
Prospective graduate students should apply to one of the following graduate programs:
Biomedical Engineering
Translational Biology, Medicine, and Health (TBMH)
School of Neuroscience
Genetics, Bioinformatics & Computational Biology (GBCB)
Research Assistant Position
We have an opening for a research assistant. Duties of the research assistant may include working on model
construction, data collection, data organization, and data analysis and coordinating projects with other
members of the laboratory. The candidate will have the opportunity to co-author publications and, depending
on background and experience, craft their own research projects. Training and guidance and will be provided
for those aspects of the job in which the candidate is lacking sufficient expertise. This position would be
well suited for someone who is considering graduate school in neuroscience, biomedical engineering,
electrical engineering, computer science, applied mathematics, or medical school. See detailed ad
here.
Undergraduate Students
We welcome undergraduates who are interested in becoming a part of our research team. If you are interested
in joining the lab please e-mail Dr. Vijayan (neuron99 AT vt.edu) a resume, unofficial transcripts, and a
one-page letter on why you are interested in joining the lab and how working in the lab fits in with your
future career objectives.
