You?
Interested in Joining Our Lab?
Opportunities may exist for graduate studies in entomology in my lab. I currently do not have funding for post-doctoral positions, but I am happy to assist in efforts to procure funding to work on vector biology. If you are interested in either graduate studies or post-doctoral opportunities, please contact me: mhreiski@ncsu.edu
