Openings

Undergraduate Researchers

Undergraduates interested in gaining research experience examining questions related to host-microbe interactions should reach out to Emily to see whether there are opennings in the lab. Projects in the lab involve bench lab work (wet), computational research (dry), or a combination of both. Prospective researchers should be willing to make a time commitment of at least 8 hours per week to their research during fall and spring semesters. If interested, please send an email to set up a time to talk.

Graduate Students

The lab accepts graduate students through multiple programs, including the Biology Graduate Degree Program, Bioinformatics and Genomics, and Molecular, Cellular, and Integrative Biosciences (MCIBS) programs. Prospective students should email me the summer or fall before applying to see whether openings are anticipated and whether there might be mutual interest. If so, the ideal program will be identified based on the prospective’s students interests and experience.

Admission to graduate programs is determined by the admissions committees of each program. Reach out to the heads of each program if you have any questions about the status of your application. Please note that I do not accept students via direct admit mechanisms. The lab only takes on new students following a rotation during the first year.

Postdocs | Research Associates

If you are interested in a postdoc position in the lab, please email me with your interests, timeline, CV, and a recent paper (pre-prints encouraged) and we can chat about potential projects.
