Please submit an Expression of Interest  if you feel you may be well-suited to one of these positions.  In general, I will only reply to unsolicited requests from those who have thoughtfully completed the form linked here.

Undergraduate positions

We are excited to collaborate with companies interested in jointly employing anyone from an intern to a post-doctoral researcher to undertake a commercially-focused research project.  I can be reached by email to discuss opportunities.

Equity and Diversity

In the Buckley Group, we strive to create a safe and inclusive working environment in which researchers from diverse backgrounds and with diverse goals can thrive.  We support researchers in their family and personal life priorities because we believe that a rewarding research career is only one aspect of a rich, rewarding life.

Many of our projects involve “bench” research and/or field work.  While physical mobility and visual acuity are useful for this work, they are by no means requirements to be a good researcher or a valuable member of our team.  I encourage all interested students, regardless of physical ability, to consider a career in research and to get in touch.
