Postdoctoral Positions
We welcome postdoctoral applicants with fellowships and/or a strong publication record in neuroscience, cell and molecular biology, computational biology, or related fields. Experience in mentoring and college-level teaching is required. Candidates with coding skills are preferred.
PhD Positions
Graduate school applications should go through any of the training programmes offered at Boston University (BU). We do not address direct inquiries during the application process. Candidates for lab rotations and research positions are only considered after they have accepted the offer from a training programme. International applicants with fellowships must also apply through any of the graduate programmes at BU. All applicants may mention their interest in our lab in their application package.
Undergraduate Research Positions
Recruitment for undergraduate freshmen, sophomores, and juniors for directed study
(e.g., research for credit, UROP, Honours thesis) typically takes place in the spring. A minimum commitment of 2
consecutive semesters is required. Students should fulfil ≥16 hours of training per week during the spring and fall
semesters and ≥20 hours per week in the summer. Applicants are shortlisted based on grades achieved in STEM courses at BU.
Candidates for UROP and Honours thesis must have trained in our lab for at least 1 semester.
Applications are considered on a rolling basis. Volunteers or international interns/observers (who are unaffiliated with
BU-approved programmes) are not accepted as a lab policy for safety and compliance reasons. All Terriers may apply.
