If you think you are interested in joining my lab, please email me before applying to determine if our research
interests align. In your email, include brief statements describing (1) your research interests; (2) your academic
background; and (3) why you are specifically interested in joining my lab. Detailed instructions and admission
requirements to UK Department of Plant and Soil Sciences are available here. I also encourage prospective students to
apply to graduate fellowships (e.g., the NSF GRFP, USDA NIFA fellowships for predoctoral, or Fulbright Scholar Program
for international students), and can advise you regarding fellowship applications given sufficient time (4-6 weeks)
before the application deadline.
Postdoc fellowships
Please email me with a description of your research interests and a CV if you are interested in joining my lab. I can
help you apply to a range of external postdoc fellowship opportunities (e.g., USDA NIFA, NSF fellowships for
postdoctoral, NASA, NOAA, and Ford Foundation fellowships). and UK-specific fellowships (the UK Postdoctoral
Fellowships).

I am currently teaching PLS 103H (Plants, Soils, and People from A Global Perspective), PLS395/399 Research/Internship
Credits, and PLS 597 SP: Precision Management for Agriculture and Natural Resources.
If you are interested in my courses or research opportunities, please email me.
