Join the Lab Team:
UMaine Students: We are currently accepting applications for students interested in earning course credit by doing field experience or independent study in the lab during the spring 2020 semester. There are a limited number of positions available.
Volunteer positions: We are currently accepting applications for volunteer positions in the lab. Volunteers must agree to be involved with lab activities for a minimum of 5 hours per week.
