About the Shukla Lab: The Shukla Lab for Designer Biomaterials is part of the School of Engineering, Center for Biomedical Engineering, and Institute for Molecular and Nanoscale Innovation at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. We are a diverse group of students and postdocs with backgrounds in Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, and Chemistry, led by PI, Anita Shukla. The lab focuses on the development of biomaterials-based treatments for microbial infections. The lab is currently funded by the DoD, NSF, and Falk Foundation. Follow our work on Twitter @ShuklaLab. Potential opportunities are available in the Shukla Lab for talented graduate students, postdocs, and undergraduates. Please contact Professor Shukla directly to discuss your interest in these opportunities.
