Opportunities

Our lab is always looking to add enthusiastic people who want to work in a fast-paced, collaborative atmosphere. We seek passion, creativity and individuality in potential colleagues.

Postdoctoral Fellows

Interested candidates should send David an email describing what motivates their interest in our work as well as a brief description of their training background, a CV and contact info for three references.

Graduate Students

We accept graduate students from a number of programs on campus. At the PhD level, we recruit from the Microbiology Doctoral Training Program (MDTP) and the Genetics PhD Program. We also consider students from the Bacteriology Master of Science (MS) Program. Guidelines for applying to these programs can be found on their respective websites, but any interested students are encouraged to contact David directly.

Undergraduates

The Hershey Lab provides undergraduates with the opportunity perform independent research projects alongside graduate students or postdocs. Interested students should describe their educational background and what excites them about our work in an email to David.
