FUNDING IS AVAILABLE FOR QUALIFIED STUDENTS (up to $37 000 for an MSc degree)!

There are currently openings in the lab for graduate students. Students may pursue either an MSc or PhD degree in the lab through the Neuroscience Graduate program via the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience. Alternatively, students may choose to pursue an MSc (Rehabilitation Research) or PhD (Health) through the School of Physiotherapy. Funding is available for qualified students, including full tuition, fees and a monthly stipend.

Interested students should contact Shaun Boe (s.boe@dal.ca) anytime throughout the year.
