Interested in Joining Us?

Undergraduate Opportunities


Biology student interested in getting involved? Please fill out the form below. Majoring in something else and interested in getting involved? You can also fill out the form below! Our research is highly interdisciplinary, so there are frequent opportunities to connect study in Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Environmental Science, and Engineering to our projects. None of our current projects directly incorporate Social Sciences within the lab, but that is not entirely outside the realm of possibilities, either.


Graduate Opportunities


Tufts Biology Open-Choice Masters students whether specializing in Marine Biology, Bio-informatics or neither are also encouraged to reach out by filling out the form below.


The Deyle lab is not actively recruiting for PhD positions.



Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to know how to code in R (or Python)?

No! There are many opportunities to improve your coding skills, including from square one, and many opportunities to apply whatever level of coding skills you have.

I am not a Biology major. Can I still participate in lab research?

Our research is highly interdisciplinary, so there are frequent opportunities to connect study in Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Environmental Science, and Engineering to our projects. None of our current projects directly incorporate Social Sciences within the lab, but that is not entirely outside the realm of possibilities, either.

Can I get paid?

Opportunities through work-study and otherwise do come up, but as with research for credit we will prioritize students that have already participated in lab research on a volunteer basis. 

Can I get course credit?

Research for course credit is possible through Bio 93/193, but we will generally expect students to have had some experience with the lab research already as volunteers.
