Join Our Lab

Join our group.

We welcome scientists and students interested in sensory neurobiology, taste, thermosensation, and neural circuit function.


Positions in the lab

Our projects examine sensory coding in somatosensation and taste, and interactions between these senses, in neural and behavioral contexts in mouse systems. Studies involve in vivo neurophysiology, optogenetics, DREADDs, and behavioral assays. Please contact Dr. Lemon for more information concerning opportunities for scientists, post-docs, and graduate study.

Undergraduate student volunteer positions have limited availability.
