Open Opportunities

We are always excited to welcome new students, postdocs, research assistants, and interns to our lab! Our work spans the ‘genomic medicine cycle’ – from discovery to biological insight to clinical translation – and we believe that great science comes from people with diverse skills and perspectives. Whether your background is in genetics, bioinformatics, statistics, computer/data science, or medicine, there’s a place for you here.

If you’d like to get involved, please send us your CV and a short cover letter sharing your research interests (schen.uchi at gmail.com). We also post targeted opportunities for specific projects at the top of this page – check back often to see what’s new!

Prospective PhD students

Our lab welcomes trainees from several UChicago PhD programs. If you’re interested in joining, please include the program you’ve been admitted to in your email. While we cannot admit students directly, we’re always happy to discuss research opportunities and explore how you can get involved.
