Are you interested in a volunteer position in an exciting new project with the UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience Pocket Smile team?

The project will be running from November 14 to December 18 2016 at the Science Museum, London, as part of their Live Science programme.

A team of ten UCL volunteers will engage visitors in an experiment exploring if playing a video game with smiling faces or landscapes will have a greater boost to their mood depending on the image type.

The one-month positions are limited to 10 places and are open to anyone from first year undergraduates to PhD students. We need volunteers who can commit to a minimum of one day per week to the project.

Candidates should have an interest in science and innovative healthcare interventions, be comfortable approaching people, be positive, proactive and responsible. No prior experience is required and you will receive an induction at the Science Museum.
