Hello my name is Gabrielle Riddick, I am a Senior at Rutgers University- New Brunswick majoring in psychology seeking  research opportunities that will allow me to further develop my skills in psychological research and gain hands-on experience working with diverse populations. My research interests Forensic and Clinical psychology, as a Ronald E. McNair Scholar, I am currently conducting an independent research project examining the relationship between childhood trauma and criminal behavior, which has given me experience with literature reviews, developing research questions, research methodology, and proposed data collection and analysis. Additionally, through my experience as a Registered Behavioral Technician, I have gained hands-on experience with behavioral observation, data collection and documentation, implementing evidence-based interventions, and collaborating with clinical professionals. I am particularly interested in research assistant roles involving child development, clinical psychology, behavioral research, educational settings, or forensic psychology. I am eager to contribute to a research team while strengthening my skills in data collection, behavioral coding, research ethics, analysis, and research dissemination as I prepare for graduate study and a future career in psychology.

Hello, my name is Lina Jawahry. I am an internationally educated dentist with previous research experience at New York University and the University of Pennsylvania. I am currently based in New Jersey and am actively seeking an opportunity to become involved in research at Rutgers.

My background in dentistry has given me a strong interest in clinical and biomedical research, particularly in areas related to oral health, pain, behavioral health, public health, and interdisciplinary research connecting dentistry and medicine. I am also very interested in expanding my experience into new areas of research and learning from an active research team.

I have been applying to research positions through the Rutgers career portal, but I wanted to reach out directly through this forum as well in hopes of connecting with faculty members or investigators who may have current or upcoming research opportunities.

I am open to volunteer, part-time, or paid research assistant opportunities. I am motivated, reliable, eager to learn, and happy to support ongoing projects in any way that would be helpful, including literature review, data collection, patient-related research activities, research coordination, and other responsibilities depending on the needs of the research team.

I would be very grateful for the opportunity to contribute to a research group at Rutgers and further develop my research experience. My CV is attached for review, and I would be happy to provide any additional information.

Please feel free to contact me if there is an opportunity that may be a good fit.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Lina Jawahry
