Thank you for your interest in working with the Sewall Lab! We love working with undergraduates, but it is important that everyone working for the lab understands that research is about how we work together, not just what we do as scientists.
We have no prerequisites for experience or training, because we can provide those, but we do look for people who are committed to hard work, collaboration, and contribution to our science that reveals the mechanisms that link human, animal, and environmental health in an effort to improve all three.
Being a member of the lab needs to be a top priority (second only to your course work) for anyone who wants to join our team for the long-haul.
Training Process:
Shadow a graduate member of the lab for one semester to learn about the lab and our research
One term of Field Study (BIOL 2964) -- basic lab safety
Research Experience (BIOL 2994) -- as a senior lab member and you have a project you want to work on (we will help you find research funding to support independent work after completing BIOL 2994)
Independent Research (BIOL 4994) -- for those with funding support for their own projects
