Joining the Lab

Graduate Students

We are currently recruiting enthusiastic and talented graduate students to join our lab. The capital equipment, core facilities, and infrastructures at the Marsico Lung Institute will be available to students for conducting research and completing their theses, which are also supported by our bioinformatics and biostatistics team.
If you are interested in joining our lab, or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Dr. Chen: gang.chen@unc.edu

Our Commitment to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion:

The Chen Lab always strives to create an inclusive and equitable environment for every one of our members. We acknowledge and respect the originality and contributions that a diverse research team is uniquely poised to offer.

As such, we welcome applications from individuals interested in joining the lab regardless of their background (including but not limited to age, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, nationality, disability, or socioeconomic status). We strongly encourage applications, particularly from members of these and other underrepresented and historically disadvantaged groups. We firmly believe that supporting the academic and non-academic journey of all trainees regardless of their background will benefit the growth of the individual, as well as advance the broader scientific community.
