===== Biophotonics Lab Summer Research Positions =====
There are a few summer undergraduate research positions available in the Biophotonics Lab, which is located in the newly renovated ABB photonics facility as well as in the McMaster Smart Home for Aging-in-Place (SHAPE) in Westdale. The students will be responsible to build and calibrate different experimental systems including 
  * ultrafast laser micromachining and additive manufacturing, 
  * fluorescence microscopy, 
  * endoscopic imaging, 
  * optofluidic sensing, 
  * Smart Home sensor networks.  

Each of these projects have different requirements which are outlined below.  These positions are eligible as Co-op placement and flexible working hours (e.g., for those taking summer classes) can be arranged.  The candidates are encouraged to apply to external summer research awards such as the NSERC USRA as well as Work-Study (OSAP eligibility applies).  

These projects may be extended to the following academic year as an undergraduate thesis project (non-engineering), capstone (engineering), a research inquire course project, or a part-time work-study position. It is also part of the [[http://www.eng.mcmaster.ca/msbe/programs/degree-options/masc/accelerated-option|Accelerated Master Program in Biomedical Engineering]], especially (but not limited to) for students in the iBioMed program. 

==== Requirements ====
Hands on experience in at least one programing language (e.g., C/C++, Python, C#, etc.) and high-level computation packages such as MATLAB is highly desired.  Course background in optics and optical instrumentation is a plus.  

==== How to Apply ====
Interested students should e-mail an updated CV and unofficial transcript to biophotonics@mcmaster.ca.  

===== Project descriptions =====
 
Please refer to the **[[:public:research|main research page]]** for general project descriptions as well as related publications which provides details of these projects.
