Undergraduate students:

Undergraduate students are essential members of the Poynton Lab.  Building the next generation of environmental scientists begins here and we invite UMass Boston students with an interest in molecular biology and a passion for the environmental science to join us. Reach out to Dr. Poynton via email to see what opportunities are available in the Poynton Lab!

We also welcome undergraduates from across the country to join our lab each summer as part of our CREST Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program.
