We are always looking for talented, motivated scientists who are excited about genomics, lung biology, and the challenge of turning genetic discoveries into new treatments.
Work at the forefront of translational genomics, using the latest tools in single-cell genomics, CRISPR, organoids, and AI-driven bioinformatics.
Benefit from Dr. Zhou's decade of experience mentoring scientists who have gone on to independent positions in academia and industry worldwide.
Collaborate with a diverse team at UVA and through partnerships with academic institutes and pharmaceutical companies across the country.
Your work will directly contribute to identifying new targets and treatments for chronic lung diseases that affect millions of patients worldwide.
Work at the University of Virginia, a leading research university with state-of-the-art core facilities and a vibrant biomedical research community.
Enjoy life in beautiful Charlottesville — a vibrant college town with outstanding quality of life, outdoor recreation, and a thriving cultural scene.
We are actively recruiting postdoctoral fellows with backgrounds in genomics, computational biology, molecular biology, or lung biology. Strong candidates will have expertise in one or more of: single-cell genomics, GWAS analysis, CRISPR editing, organoid culture, or machine learning applied to biological data.
We welcome rotation students and thesis students from UVA's Ph.D. programs including Genetics & Genomics, Biomedical Sciences, Data Science, and related fields. Students with interests in GWAS functional studies, single-cell genomics, lung disease, or computational methods are encouraged to reach out.
We are looking for motivated research scientists and lab staff with hands-on experience in molecular biology, cell culture, or bioinformatics to support our growing research program and the Center for Translational Genomics.
Motivated UVA undergraduate students interested in gaining research experience in genomics or lung biology are welcome to inquire. Students will have the opportunity to contribute to real research projects under close mentorship.
Interested candidates should send the following materials to Dr. Zhou:
Graduate students must apply through UVA's official graduate programs. The following programs are relevant to research in the Zhou Lab:
