We apply various approaches including gene regulatory network modeling, transcriptomics, genome editing, single-cell biology, whole plant physiology and metabolomics. We have funded positions available for work on single-cell regulation of the circadian clock and the use of computational tools to study temporal regulation of specialized plant metabolites, though students with a broad range of interests are encouraged to contact us to discuss possible projects.
If you are interested in applying, please email Dr. Greenham (greenham [@] umn.edu) your CV and a short (1-2 paragraph) email explaining your research interests and career goals.
Undergraduates Undergraduates interested in whole plant biology, acclimation and to climatic stress, genetics, molecular cloning and bioinformatic techniques and data processing are all encouraged to come work with us! If interested, send Dr. Greenham an email outlining your interests and goals. Undergraduates at the lab have had majors ranging from Plant Biology, Computer Science, Public Health and more.
While we love working with undergraduates, we do encourage students to write to us the semester before they would like to begin as the lab is sometimes full.
