Postdocs
We are always looking for excellent postdoc candidates. We may not always have readily available funding, but if are interested, contact Sergey with your CV and a brief description of your interest in the lab.
PhD students
If interested, contact Sergey with your CV and a brief description of your interest in the lab.
Undergraduate students
We usually have 1-2 undergraduate students working in the lab, supervised by postdocs or graduate students. If you are interested in doing research with us, the best way to start is to take the Population Genetics course (BICD 156) or the Evolution of Infectious Diseases course (BIEB 152) that Sergey teaches. If you think that you know enough about evolution without taking these courses, contact Sergey with your CV, transcript and a brief description of your interest in the lab.
High school students
We are currently not hosting any high-school students.
