August 2024:
Applications for graduate student positions are now open for Spring 2025/Fall 2026 admission (applying as soon as possible is recommended as it takes time to process inquiries, discuss, interview, etc.).
If you are a postgraduate student with a bachelors or masters degree with demonstrated skills in molecular genetic/synthetic biology, we are seeking someone with such expertise for emerging projects.
If qualified and interested, please contact Erik with:
(1) your CV (with names of at least 3 references),
(2) a detailed explanation of your interests and why you think you would be a good candidate for this work, and
(3) how you think he/we could help you with your career goals.
(if you do not follow these directions, it will be hard to evaluate so please do not expect a reply...)
We are otherwise generally open to ambitious, hard-working, curious, and disciplined team members joining our lab. If you have an appetite for discovery, adventure, and learning and are:
• a MS high school student interested in a summer research experience, check out: ARISE@UM
• an undergraduate interested in working in the lab during the year, over the summer, or for an Honor's thesis
• interested in a visiting the lab
...you are very welcome to contact Dr. Hom directly with an enquiry.
Meanwhile, we will be busy working to get long-overdue papers out the door!
