Opportunities in the Mellone lab:
Interested in joining us? Please read our lab's core values.
Postdoctoral fellow: We are looking for a motivated recent PhD graduate with background and interests in molecular biology, genetics, chromatin or genomics to study centromere specification using cell biological, genetic, and genomic approaches. Fly genetic experience is a plus, but not necessary.
Please contact Barbara Mellone.
Graduate students: We are currently accepting M.S. and Ph.D. candidates through the Molecular and Cell Biology program. Interested first year students should contact Barbara Mellone to discuss rotation projects.
Undergraduate research opportunities:
-Due to the changes in laboratory practices implemented during the Covid-19 pandemic, the Mellone lab is not taking on any new undergraduate trainees for the time being. Please check back here for an application link when undergraduate laboratory training resumes!
-We participate in the Beckman Program, a competitive research opportunity that supports undergraduate students with a stipend for one academic year and two summers, plus a trip to the Beckman Scholar Conference. Students must have a GPA of 3.5 or higher and some research experience. If interested in this opportunity, contact professor Barbara Mellone.
