Join the Lab

Graduate students

I am currently reviewing applications for MS or PhD students to join the lab in Fall 2024. Students could work on a variety of projects, details to come.

In addition to funding I might have, I encourage my own students and applicants to apply for various grants and fellowships:

• Fulbright Program - this is for non-US residents to study and work in the US - due in October (depends a bit on the country) each year
• NSF GRFP - Award is for three years of funding - lots of restrictions on who can apply - due in October each year
• Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans - Due in November each year
• Hertz Fellowship - Fellowships to PhD students in the applied physical and biological sciences, mathematics, or engineering - due in October each year
• Ford Foundation Fellowship
• List of other fellowships
• Another fellowship database
