Our two primary goals are to teach and discover. We thus put a strong emphasis on mentoring and training the next generation of scientists. None of the people in our group would be where they are today if not for the devoted efforts of their mentors, teachers and peers. It is thus key to contribute to the great chain of scientific knowledge at every stage of one’s career. We expect all members of the lab to be kind, supportive and open to help keep the lab fun and conducive to interdisciplinary teamwork, innovation and learning.
Available positions are listed below and people from a variety of scientific backgrounds are welcome to apply, including, but not limited to, immunology and biological sciences, engineering, physics, chemistry and computational biology.
