Information for Prospective Students

I welcome inquiries from prospective students regarding graduate positions in my laboratory. Most of the students I work with are supported by extramural funding for specific projects and apply based on position announcements for such projects. That said, I will consider taking a student without a specific project if they have strong credentials and I have discretionary funds available to support their work. A list of current position announcements and general areas of research that I would consider accepting students to work on is included below. Students who wish to apply for graduate work in the Department of Zoology at Oklahoma State University should refer to the departmental website for information about the application process: How to Apply to the OSU Zoology Graduate Program

Please feel free to contact me via e-mail or phone if you would like any additional information about my research and laboratory.
