Are you interested in pursuing graduate studies with Dr. Inzlicht at the University of Toronto? Dr. Inzlicht is always on the lookout for self-motivated and hard-working graduate students and he will consider possibly accepting one new experimental psychology PhD student for the Fall of 2026; he will not be accepting new clinical MA students for the foreseeable future. Dr. Inzlicht is eager to accept students who have interests in the psychology effort, boredom, motivation, social media, and cannabis.

Benefits of working in the Work and Play Lab include guaranteed funding (including funds for one to two conferences per year), experience in a multidisciplinary lab, and the quality of life conferred by living in the great city of Toronto.
