Post-docs: Qualified postdoc applicants should submit their CVs directly to Dr. Allen.

Ph.D. Students: Our laboratory typically recruits 1 new Ph.D. student every fall.  We almost exclusively recruit through the UF Biomedical Engineering Department, but in some instances will recruit from other UF departments.  All candidates must first apply to the UF Graduate School and are also strongly encouraged to directly apply to the UF Biomedical Engineering Department.  Please apply to both, not one or the other; information on the application process is available here.  We will be accepting 1-2 new PhD students in Fall of 2016. 

M.S. Students:  Our laboratory is happy to support M.S. student research projects, but due to limited resources, we are unable to support M.S. student stipends or tuition.  If you are interested in working on an M.S. student project, please contact Dr. Allen or Dr. Yarmola.

Undergraduate Students: Our laboratory typically has 4-6 undergraduate volunteers or independent study students every semester.  These positions fill quickly, typically at the beginning of the semester.  Priority is given to students who have previously worked in the lab.  Typically, students begin by volunteering to assist one of our graduate students or post-docs.  Once the student has demonstrated sufficient responsibility and trustworthiness, we encourage our undergraduates to progress to independent study projects, which continue to be supervised by one of our graduate students or post-docs but allow more ownership by the undergraduate student.  If you are interested in working on an undergraduate project, please contact Dr. Allen or Dr. Yarmola to see if the lab has positions available.
