Recruitment Information: Dr. Brown is accepting undergraduate research mentees for the Fall 2024 semester (the lab is full for Spring 2024). Honors students must join the SPHERE Lab no later than their junior year to have Dr. Brown direct a thesis within the time frame set forth by the honors college to complete the project. Credit for 207V is not possible during the first semester working with Dr. Brown. It should be noted that psychology majors will receive preferential consideration in honors theses unless a non-major has demonstrated considerable interest in research conducted in the lab.
As of Fall 2023, Dr. Brown does NOT recruit post-baccalaureate scholars for exclusively online mentorship. Virtual mentorship is only possible if the scholar has previously been a student at University of Arkansas. Post-baccalaureate scholars who did not work with Dr. Brown during undergraduate training must be local or receiving primary mentorship from a "home institute" with Dr. Brown serving as a secondary mentor to offer specific training in collaboration with the primary mentor. Note that it would be a good idea to have a primary advisor who knows me in some capacity.
