Are you interested in joining the lab?
Prospective Postdocs: I have research funds for various projects, though nothing allocated for a postdoc salary for longer than 1 year. Thus, if you think my lab might make a good home for your postdoc, let's talk about ideas that you can write up for a fellowship. For instance, there is the KU NIH IRACDA Postdoctoral Training Program and theNSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program (PRFB).
Prospective Graduate Students: If you are potentially interested in joining the lab as a PhD student, I can take students admitted through the programs run through the KU MB and KU EEB departments. See "Current Research" page for more information on available projects.

Prospective Undergraduate Students: If you are interested in biology research and think my lab might be a good place to learn, please send me an email! It's OK not to know *exactly* what you are interested in, but if my work sparks your interest, then let's chat about how I can help guide your scientific experience. I am especially interested in students who have taken programming/computer sciences classes, and are looking to get bioinformatics experience.

- Through EEB (direct admit) - it is a requirement that you contact a PI prior to applying. If you are interested in joining my lab, please reach out to discuss types of projects available. I would prioritize someone who is eligible to apply for the NSF GRFP.
FYI - Unfortunately, I am not interested in a student who wants to do any major field component. - Through MB (rotation program) - there is no requirement for you to contact any PI prior to applying. For the future, I would prioritize those students with some combination of the following (1) interested in working with zebrafish, (2) having previous coding skills, (3) eligible to apply for NIH predoctoral fellowships, like T32 or F31.
