Comments closedThe Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars is looking for qualified students (advanced undergraduate or graduate) interested in being part-time research assistant interns. An intern typically works 12-15 hours a week per scholar. (The number of hours can be adjusted accordingly to fulfill academic requirements).
Comments closedSummer is an exciting, though busy, time for us. Students have begun arriving for their summer internships—some for the first time and some for a return tour. After focusing on identifying and on boarding the best and brightest students over the last year, the fruit of our collective labor is visible throughout the Agency. Now our focus shifts to ensuring that our students have meaningful work experiences, to attending to their quality of life activities, and to identifying students for next summer. By the way, 70 to 80% of our students convert to full-time staff when they graduate. So, in addition to gaining some very valuable work experience, a student opportunity at CIA may very well lead to a career.
That being said, NOW is the time for your students to apply for scholarships and summer 2013 internships. Students who wish to work for a time period other than summer should apply at least 12 months before their desired start date. This allows ample time for selected applicants to complete our rigorous application process (medical testing, security processing, and background investigation).

However, with the ability to control came the demand to monitor neural activity during optogenetic experiments. To address the need for simultaneous optical stimulation and electrophysiological recording we have recently demonstrated a low-cost, miniature device “Optetrode”.
