You are interested in how and why novel behaviours evolve? You enjoy working with insects and/or bioinformatics? You wanna get hands on research experience?
Great! Get in touch!
Undergraduate students
I have short term projects available that can be run by undergraduate students (See Research for some of the work we are doing) as a BIOL4.000 or as a voluntary research project. Among others, projects can include field work, behavioral experiments, automated tracking, pharmacological manipulations, neurogenetics, and much more and can be done using bees, ants and flies. Training included! Send me an email and let’s have a chat!
Graduate students
If you are interested in doing a master’s or a PhD, send me an email with your CV and a cover letter outlining your research interests and we can have a chat about potential projects and funding opportunities.
Students from historically marginalized groups
Supporting students from historically marginalized groups is a matter of the heart for me. Get in touch with me if you are interested in doing a research internship with me. There are some nice funding opportunities, e.g. TDIS, APS, and TSLAMP, to support you.
Funding opportunities
There are mutliple funding opportunities to support your research at different stages of your career and I am always interested in applying for funding. Contact me if you are interested.
