Research Opportunities
Graduate Researchers
We often have research or teaching assistantships available for highly motivated Masters or PhD students. We have a wide variety of research projects and availability of assistantships depends heavily on the availability of research funding. If are interested in our laboratory or have specific project ideas as an undergraduate we can work you to submit graduate fellowship applications through the National Science Foundation or other organizations.

Undergraduate Researchers
Our laboratory hosts many undergraduate students both within and outside of WSU. We have many volunteer research project opportunities for undergraduates to gain research experience so contact our lab for the availability of undergraduate opportunities. The lab is a fast-paced environment so we are only interested in highly motivated, career-driven students that can directly articulate how research experience will benefit their career goals.
We also often have opportunities for undergraduates to be involved in paid student hourly positions to help with specific laboratory tasks and fish husbandry/maintenance. Open positions are posted below, contact the lab for more information if you are interested:
