If you are a prospective graduate student, the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) offers world-class training  programs in medicine and biomedical sciences. Please explore the links on this page to learn more about UAB's Graduate Biomedical Sciences (PhD) program and Medical Scientist Training Program (MD/PhD) program. Mollaoglu Lab cannot accept direct applications for graduate positions and you need to enroll in one of these programs first to join the lab.

If you are a current PhD or MD/PhD student at UAB looking for a rotation lab and excited about our research mission, please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss potential positions and research projects.

If you are a prospective postdoctoral fellow, please consider applying to the SPATIAL PRIME (Post-doctoral Research Initiative Multidisciplinary Exploration) program at UAB's Heersink School of Medicine, which provides a structured and financially competitive postdoctoral training in spatial biology. Mollaoglu Lab will primarily accept postdoctoral fellows through this program.  Please contact us directly if you already have a postdoctoral scholarship (e.g., NCI K00, Marie Curie, EMBO etc.) and would like to join us.

If you are an Honors College undergraduate, a Master student, or a medical fellow at UAB, feel free to contact us to explore exciting research opportunities at any time.
