Join the Lab
We are always looking for curious, enthusiastic, and creative scientists!
Interested post-doctoral candidates should contact Elizabeth with a cover letter, CV and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent on your behalf.
Prospective graduate students should apply through the Biological Sciences, Biomedical Sciences and/or Chemistry and Biochemistry graduate programs at UCSD. We also are part of the Molecular Biophysics and the Interfaces Training Grants and the qBio Ph.D. specialization. As we are a highly interdisciplinary group, we encourage students from other departments to join the lab!
If you are not familiar with the American graduate school system or just need some tips, see this great Graduate School Application Guide; along with the International Student Guide put together by Cientifico Latino.
Current UCSD graduate students interested in rotating in the Villa lab, please email Elizabeth.
