How to be a High School Phagehunter?
We basically have 2 ways to participate in the Phagehunting independent Research in the Phagehunter Lab of Dr. Graham Hatfull at the University of Pittsburgh. One is a volunteer after school program during the school year and the other is our Fellowship Program offered in the summer. Both require the same application , transcripts, and an e-mail (see application for address). Once all pieces are received, we will contact you. If you are already participating in the program as a school year phagehunter and would like to be considered for a summer position, please send an e-mail to debbie to notify her that you would like to be considered for a summer position.Remember to submit your laboratory plan.
