Undergraduate Students: - The Thomas lab is looking for undergraduate students to participate in hypothesis-driven ecotoxicogenomics using the zebrafish model. Typical undergrad projects involve selecting pharmaceuticals of interest, proposing a hypothesis about specific systems perturbed by pharma exposure, exposing populations of zebrafish, and examining gene expression patterns in the exposed fish to test the hypothesis. Students can work for independent problems credit (BIOL 4481/4482), honor thesis credit, Career Path Internship experience, or in some other capacity.
Graduate Students:- The Bioinformatics and Genome Biology Laboratory at Idaho State University is looking for a PhD level graduate research assistant for bioinformatics and genomics. The successful candidate will be expected to work with Professor Luobin Yang in an inter-disciplinary research environment on bioinformatics. A background in quantitative science (computer sciences, mathematics, statistics) and biological sciences is required. Applicants must have experience and strong interest in programming. A strong interest in biological data analysis is preferred. If you are interested, please contact Dr. Luobin Yang (yangluob@isu.edu).
- The Thomas lab is looking for Doctor of Arts (DA) graduate students interested in developing a zebrafish ecotoxicogenomics lab. DA students are supported by a generous Fellowship stipend and funds for tuition/fees/benefits. DA students develop a hypothesis-driven research project and gain critical classroom and mentoring experience. Typically, DA students go on to faculty positions at smaller undergrad-focused institutions. If you are interested in exploring this opportunity, contact Dr. Thomas and read about the DA program here.
- The Thomas lab is looking for Master of Science (MS) graduate students interested in developing a zebrafish ecotoxicogenomics project. MS students are supported by a generous Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) stipend and funds for tuition/fees/benefits. MS students develop a hypothesis-driven research project and gain critical research experience. Typically, MS students go on to seek PhDs at larger graduate-focused institutions, or find research-scientist jobs in the biomedical industry. If you are interested in exploring this opportunity, contact Dr. Thomas and read about the MS program here.
