Undergraduate Students

We are now accepting applications from self-motivated and creative undergraduate students. The immuno-modulatory biomaterials lab is an excellent environment to learn how to do research. Undergraduates work closely with the PI and a graduate student mentor on various projects. Performing undergraduate research in the Lewis Laboratory will give you a competitive edge on your peers, as you enter the next phase of your career. Students are expected to have and maintain a 3.25 GPA, be at least a sophomore at UF, and commit to a minimum of at least 10 hours/ week. Interested candidates should email a letter of interest, unofficial transcript and resume to Professor Lewis.
