The Caras Lab wants to hire a lab technician to work on our NIH funded project on the neural circuits that support auditory perception, plasticity, and learning! Ideal for someone looking to gain research experience before grad school. See for details!

RFI alert from @NIH: We've all heard many concerns about #postdoc training: retention in academia, perceived decline in #s, salary... An @NIH Advisory Committee to the Director working group is exploring & has issued an RFI. Love your responses:

@McMurraylab @Quartzy Oh no, when is this supposed to start? First I’ve heard of it, and there’s no way we can justify that cost (especially for only 5 users!). So disappointing. Anyone have suggestions for alternative platforms?

@NinaSteele17 @Momademia Consider bringing a hand pump as an emergency backup in case your electric pump suddenly stops working. And special wipes for cleaning breast pump parts in case you get stuck without access to soap/water for longer than expected.
