If you are interested in joining the group
– as an undergraduate student at Cornell: please contact Prof. Dshemuchadse directly;
– as an external undergraduate student: the group regularly hosts summer research students via the CCMR REU Program, to which you can apply directly; you can also apply to the Cornell LSAMP Summer REU program;
– as a graduate student: apply with a MS or PhD program at Cornell (decisions are made by the admissions committees → MSE, ChBE) or through our bridge program with Ezra’s Bridge or the ACS Bridge Program;
– as a postdoctoral researcher: please contact Prof. Dshemuchadse describing your research interests and the funding (e.g., fellowships) you intend to apply for. (There are currently no open funded positions for postdoctoral scholars.)
