Join the lab
Our group brings together researchers from chemistry, biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology, molecular biology, and mass spectrometry. We value curiosity, rigorous experimentation, collaboration, and people who want to learn new approaches.
Opportunities
We welcome inquiries from prospective Ph.D. students, postdoctoral researchers, and undergraduates interested in membrane protein chemistry and biophysical methods.
Graduate
Graduate students join through the Texas A&M Chemistry Ph.D. program and can pursue projects spanning native MS, structural biology, membrane proteins, ion channels, and signaling.
Postdoctoral
Postdoctoral projects can combine method development with biological applications and are shaped around complementary expertise and the lab’s active research directions.
Undergraduate
Undergraduate participation depends on project needs and available mentorship. Strong candidates are curious, reliable, and interested in developing hands-on research skills.
Training
Projects in the group commonly cross traditional boundaries, giving trainees exposure to multiple approaches while maintaining a clear mechanistic biological question.
Intact complexes, lipid binding, kinetic measurements, and emerging instrumentation.
Expression, purification, reconstitution, and biochemical characterization.
Cryo-EM and complementary structural approaches in defined membrane environments.
Writing, presentations, collaboration, mentoring, and preparation for diverse scientific careers.
For graduate admissions, use the official Texas A&M Chemistry application process. For postdoctoral or other research inquiries, contact the lab directly.
