Lab Life
The Orellana Lab is devoted to promoting the progress and professional growth of underrepresented students, technicians, and postdocs, as well as making science more accessible. The laboratory and teaching efforts are designed to be comprehensive, considerate, and responsible through transparent communication and critical analysis. It is crucial that everyone in the laboratory and class feels secure. The lab aims to keep enlisting students and postdocs from underrepresented communities to foster a diverse team where we can all learn from our disparities.
Interested in joining?
We are accepting applicants at all levels— postdoctoral, graduate, and undergraduate trainees.
Prospective postdoctoral fellows
should email their CV to Esteban at esteban.orellana@dartmouth.edu, along with a cover letter briefly explaining your research interests, research accomplishments, and reasons for pursuing a fellowship in the Orellana lab. Previous experience in molecular/cellular/biochemical biology, computational, or cancer biology is advantageous.
Prospective graduate students
should apply directly through one of the following Dartmouth graduate programs that best suit their interests.
- The Frank J. Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced studies at Dartmouth (https://graduate.dartmouth.edu/academics/programs)
- Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB) Program (https://graduate.dartmouth.edu/mcb/)
- Quantitative Biomedical Sciences (QBS) program (https://geiselmed.dartmouth.edu/qbs/)
Once you join a graduate program, we’d be happy to discuss rotation opportunities in the lab.
Prospective undergraduate students
Should email their CV to Esteban at esteban.orellana@dartmouth.edu, along with a brief message about your research interests and why you desire to train in the Orellana lab. Funding for undergraduate research is available through several programs (https://students.dartmouth.edu/ugar/faculty/research/ugar-programs/research-assistantships). We encourage you to watch carefully for deadlines and apply.
