prospective students
Prospective undergraduates
email Lauren with (i) a few sentences describing the kinds of questions or topics you are interested in, (ii) the area(s) of research in our lab that you want to learn more about, (iii) a list of some of the relevant courses you have taken to date, (iv) your professional/post-graduate plans (if you have them - this allows me to consider how a rotation with our lab could best serve your career goals).
For current undergrads, check out the the different options for credited involvement in our lab group within the EEB department [here].
Prospective graduate students
I *am* recruiting PhD/MS students this cycle (Fall 2024 application cycle to start Fall 2025).
Check out the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) at UA and see if it's a place you might want to be. Then email Lauren with some info about your academic background (where are you coming from?) and some of your research ideas/interests. We can set up a time to chat to see if we might be a good fit for each other.
*****Prospective students interested in applying to start in Fall 2025 should contact me and follow the detailed application instructions (check out the FAQ) [here] and plan to apply by early December of this year (2024).
Prospective postdocs
I am always happy to sponsor independent postdoc fellowship applications (e.g., NSF and/or NIH). There are also a number of internal postdoc opportunities at UA (e.g., One Health postdoc) Please contact me if you are interested in writing one of these together.
