Radcliffe Institute Student Research Partner Positions

Harvard Student Research Partnerships
Radcliffe Institute Fellows
Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study

As a Harvard College student, you can be part of a research program that students have called “rewarding,” “unique,” and “amazing.” You can work side by side with a Radcliffe Institute fellow. Our Radcliffe Institute Research Partnership Program matches students with leading artists, scholars, scientists, and professionals. The partnership is designed to be mutually beneficial. Fellows act as mentors, while students provide research assistance, acquire valuable research skills, and participate in the Institute’s rich intellectual life. Time Commitment and Pay: As a Radcliffe Institute research partner, you will work with a fellow from September 2015 through May 31, 2016. You will be paid $14 per hour and work an average of 5 to 10 hours a week (and not more than 20 hours per week during the academic term). Research projects and supervising fellows for 2015-2016 include Brain Rewards, Plasticity, and Consumption: The Neurobiology of Sustainable Behavior (Anne-Christiane Duhaime), Behavioral Neurogenetics of Drosophilia Aggression (Robert Huber), Shaking the Snowglobe: The History of Psychodelic Drugs (Michael Pollan), and The Moral Worlds of Humans and Animals in Laboratory Science (Lesley Alexandra Sharp).
