Egan Lab - Fungal Cell Biology

University of Arkansas, Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology

Job Posting

Plant Pathology lab is seeking a motivated undergraduate student for a paid position in the lab. Our lab uses cell biological and molecular genetics approaches to understand how filamentous fungal pathogens grow as highly polarized cell types called hyphae, and how they use these to infect both plant and human tissues. Successful applicants should be studying a relevant life science and preferably on a pre-professional school track. Job duties include performing an independent research project and the molecular genetics techniques required therein, preparation of buffers or reagents, recording laboratory notes, general laboratory maintenance and cleaning, and any other job duties as assigned. The hours are flexible and considerate of class schedule. For further information, please contact Dr. Martin Egan, me021@uark.edu
