Thanks for your interest in joining the Funk lab.  I plan to accept 1-2 new students in Fall 2026.  I strongly encourage you to apply for your own funding through an NSF graduate fellowship.  I am happy to work with you to develop a strong proposal.  Please reach out to me several months before the application is due (typically due in October).  In your email, include your CV and brief description of your research interests.

I am also keen to work with potential postdocs on fellowship applications (e.g., NSF, USDA NIFA, UC Davis CPB).  In your email, please include your CV, describe the research project, and list specific funding opportunities.
