Prospective graduate students

Prospective undergraduate Honors students
Dr. Newton is always open to hearing from prospective undergraduate students who would like to work with him on an Honors thesis and/or UROP project.

Note that Honors students should typically initiate an advisor-advisee relationship during their Junior year.
Prospective postdoctoral researchers
We will advertise funded postdoc positions here, as and when we have grant funding available to support such a position. If you are a funded postdoc (e.g., with NSF postdoctoral researcher funding) and would like to work with the GIRAFFES, please send us an email. One annual opportunity at the University of Colorado Boulder is the Chancellor's Postdoctoral Fellowship.
