Graduate Students

Thank you for your interest in the PNI Research Lab! I do plan to interview potential graduate students this year to hopefully welcome one to begin Fall 2025.

Please check out the Frequently Asked Questions here for more information.

Also check out other pages on our lab website, which have information about our research team, projects, and publications.

For more information about our graduate program and how to apply, please visit our departmental website.

Undergraduate Research Assistants

We often have openings (volunteer and directed research) for new research assistants throughout the year. RAs can gain valuable hands-on experience in biological-health psychology, and engage in a variety of activities such as assisting with recruitment efforts (screening and scheduling participants); data coding, monitoring, entry, and analysis; working with biospecimens; preparing participant materials; and attending lab and professional development meetings with the research team.

Fall 2024: We are currently accepting applications for Fall 2024! Please submit your application by April 30, 2024, at the link below and we’ll be in touch.

Post-Docs

I will consider advanced graduate students who are looking for post-doctoral training in biological-health psychology. Contact Dr. Reed for more information about post-doc opportunities in the lab. Dr. Reed is also training faculty on Pitt’s T32 Cardiovascular Behavioral Medicine Research Training Program, which currently has an opening for a postdoctoral fellowship that can start this summer or fall (in 2023).

The PNI Research Lab welcomes trainees of all backgrounds and does not discriminate on the basis of race, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, nationality, or disability.
