Research Opportunities


Graduate Students
We welcome rotation students from the following UCI graduate programs in our lab:

  • Cellular & Molecular Biosciences (CMB)
  • Microbiology & Molecular Genetics (via CMB)
  • Medical Scientist Training Program
  • Biological Sciences, MS

  • Medical Students
    Successful medical students usually commit at least 1 year to the lab starting in their MS1 year and work full-time during the summer (between MS1 and MS2). Alternatively, medical students spend 1 year in the lab during a research gap year. We highly recommend that students participate in the UCI Medical Student Research Program (MSRP). Medical students accepted into the lab are encouraged to apply for competitive funding opportunities available through the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society (PIDS), and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

    If interested, please submit your resume/CV and a brief statement of interests.
