Our lab is always looking for talented students, postdocs, trainees, visiting scientists and software engineers. If you are interested in pursuing a lab project (look for 'Projects' in the menu options) and/or willing to work with us on developing an interesting proposal, we encourage you to contact the Jaiswal lab. There are numerous opportunities for people interested in the biology, computer science, bioinformatics, computer science and systems biology applications. To be a good fit in our lab, we are looking for graduate students, postdocs, undergraduate and Highschool students who have a desire to share their deep passion and fascination for plant biology, use of computation, response to abiotic and biotic stress and wishes to undertake an integrated approach of learning and discovering novelties of plant development and a variety of responses. The applicant (you) should be able to think independently and believes in collaborations and team work. If you are already in town or enrolled in some capacity at Oregon State University campus, come talk to us and inquire about a rotation research project.

Graduate Students

    We are very interested in talented graduate students interested in working on plants by using systems biology, genomics, genome sequencing, gene expression, biochemistry, molecular biology and genetics approaches.

Undergraduate and High School Students

    A variety of research projects are available for undergraduate volunteers and intern fellowships. Both on- and off-campus students with interest in plant biology, computer science, bioinformatics, statistics, software development, genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology are encouraged to apply.
