Postdoctoral position: The Lu lab is accepting applications for a postdoctoral position. Research will focus on using microfluidics for neuroscience in C. elegans. Background in C. elegans (or closely related systems) and neuroscience or related fields is required. Interested applicants should send a current CV, a summary of research experience (1-2 pages), representative publications, and future research interests (1 page) to Hang Lu at hang dot lu at gatech dot edu. Three letters of references should be send to Hang Lu via email as well.
Technician position: The Lu lab has an opening for a part-time technician (~20 hr/wk). Ideally the candidate should have laboratory experience in biology or chemistry or related fields. The candidate should commit to at least 1 year of work. Interested applicants should email CV, transcript, and a list of three references to hang dot lu at gatech edu.
Admitted or currently enrolled graduate students in ChBE or BioE: The Lu group has openings for Ph.D. students interested in working on microfluidics, BioMEMS, quantitative modeling, and their applications in biology and medicine. Projects involve working with biological systems (cells and organisms), microfabrication, and quantitative engineering analysis. Prior experience in molecular biology, genetics, tissue culture, modeling, and/or microfabrication is not required but would be very helpful. Once at Georgia Tech, please send CV and research interests to hang dot lu at gatech edu. Interested students should apply to the PhD program in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering or to the Interdisciplinary Bioengineering Program. Please do NOT send applications directly to Dr. Lu.
Current undergraduate students: Undergraduate students (of engineering or science background) who are interested and highly motivated in learning any of the above-mentioned aspects are welcome to apply for research positions. Undergraduate students typically conduct research for credits or apply for various scholarships (e.g. PURA). Send a short resume, transcript, and research interest (1 paragraph) to hang dot lu at gatech edu. GPA 3.5 or above is preferred.
