JOIN US!

The Quiroz Lab is conceived as a meeting place for passionate and adventurous research scientists, graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. We moved to the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory in January 2020 and are actively recruiting graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. 

Prospective graduate students need to be already admitted to the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering or the Bioengineering program. For postdoctoral candidates, email a brief description of your PhD work and your CV directly to Felipe. 

We have limited space for undergraduate students, but if you are very interested in our research and would like to work with us, do not hesitate to reach out. We also welcome applications from recent graduates with interest in a full-time research position, particularly from candidates with a long-term vision of pursuing graduate or medical school.
