Master’s Opportunities in Neuroscience in United States

This internship is hosted by the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (USAMRICD), the Department of Defense’s lead laboratory for medical chemical defense research, within the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command. The project centers on in-vivo neuroscience research , giving the intern a chance to study the nervous system in living organisms and observe brain activity, behavior, and physiological processes in an intact, functioning brain. The selected intern wil...

Prevention, Resilience and Readiness Research Fellowship at the Headquarters, Department of the Army’s Directorate of Prevention, Resilience and Readiness (DPRR) in Arlington, Virginia is a remote ORISE fellowship focused on building and supporting an Army-wide prevention system. The project centers on research-based, data-informed approaches to integrating primary prevention activities and preventing harmful behaviors before they occur. The fellow will work alongside scientists and researchers ...

This fellowship is hosted by the Air Force Research Laboratory 711 Human Performance Wing through the U.S. Department of Defense and ORISE, with the research location in Bossier City, Louisiana , at Barksdale Air Force Base . The project is centered on evaluating neurotechnologies designed to enhance and preserve human cognitive and physical performance over extended periods. The fellow will contribute to research on arousal, attention, learning, memory, and multitasking, with the goal of valida...

This research opportunity at DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory focuses on Variable Energy Assisted Compression Ignition (VEACI) for a multi-fuel capable hybrid electric propulsion project. The work is aimed at improving propulsion efficiency and enabling multi-fuel capability for small engines used in unmanned vehicle propulsion . The selected researcher will study variable energy assist technologies for adaptive propulsion across a wider range of fuels, with attention to the limitations of energy...

This research opportunity at the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory focuses on understanding how visual information is processed in more immersive, mission-relevant settings. The project moves beyond tightly controlled lab experiments and uses desktop paradigms alongside immersive virtual environments to study visual search and related cognitive mechanisms under more realistic conditions. The successful participant will apply neural computational models to test predictions about how the visual syst...
