Current undergraduates in
the lab include:
Our lab actively participates in the Excellence in Research Program for
undergraduates at UC Irvine. This program encourages students to
plan and conduct their own independent research projects over several
quarters. Many students from our lab have presented their research
in the UCI-sponsored undergraduate symposium held each year. Undergraduate
research has also been published in UCI's Journal of Undergraduate
Research in the Biological Sciences and in national and international
journals.
