Life in the Cook lab
Our lab shares a vision of inclusion, creativity, and fun as central pillars of achievement. (We study social groups, can you blame us?)
Being a part of the Cook Lab means being celebrated, supported, and encouraged to achieve success in all its forms. We honor the diversity of thought that fosters new and different ways of thinking about the world, and the teamwork it takes for big, ambitious projects.

Undergraduate Students
Much of the work that happens in our lab is driven by undergraduate students. We are always looking for motivated, enthusiastic, passionate people. Ideally, undergraduate researchers will carry out small experiments during the semesters and be available for full-time field and lab work during the summer.

Postdoctoral Researchers
Marquette Biology has a small community of postdoctoral researchers.

See the job posting on the Marquette University website.
In addition, I would love to collaborate on a proposal to submit to a number of organizations.
