Graduate Student Opportunities

We do not currently have any open, funded graduate student opportunities in the lab, but please reach out if you are interested in applying for external fellowships like NSERC graduate fellowships, as externally funded students may be supported beyond the current lab grant funding capacity. If you are interested please reach out with a short statement of interest and a CV. Note that graduate students supervised in the BERRI Lab are co-supervised with either UBC Vancouver Botany or UBC Okanagan, and that applications are generally due 8 months in advance of the anticipated start date.
