Join

The lab is currently full, though we have a fairly constant stream of people joining and moving on to new things. If you are excited to join the lab or work on a specific project, reach out directly to Gerry (ghammond@pitt.edu), explaining what specifically excited you about our work. We’re always happy to explore what possibilities might be on the horizon.

Undergraduates

We love to introduce budding scientists to cutting edge research. Undergraduates in the lab quickly get experience in the most state of the art molecular genetics and optical imaging technology used in modern research. If you are interested in getting some hands on experience in cell research, and learning how this underpins our understanding and ultimately treatment of disease, get in touch with Gerry at ghammond@pitt.edu.

You can also participate in the lab through the  First Experiences in Research, Continuing Experiences in Research and Summer Undergraduate Research Programs. We have positions  available in the lab every year through each of these programs.
