Interested in joining us?

If you are interested in stem cell biology, tissue dynamics, cell fate decisions or intravital imaging please get in touch! Applications to join the lab should be sent directly to Dr. Katie Cockburn.

We recruit graduate students through the Department of Biochemistry at McGill. Please email Dr. Katie Cockburn directly with a brief overview of your research experience, experience, and training/career goals. Alternately, you can apply to the annual Goodman Cancer Institute Student Recruitment Event, which allows students from across Canada to visit Mcgill and interact with prospective supervisors and other lab members.

Post-doc candidates should reach out with a CV, contact information for 2-3 references, and a statement of research interests and motivation for joining the lab.

We welcome applications from undergraduate students, but please note that we have limited space and receive many more applications than we can consider. We typically prioritize applicants who can commit to a probationary volunteer period and/or a longer-term working relationship (eg. more than a one-term research project).

The Cockburn lab is located on the 9th floor of the McIntyre Medical Science Building at McGill University:
