Volunteer Opportunities

The Ferrell lab offers various types of volunteer positions to college undergraduates and high school students. Volunteering in the Ferrell lab is an excellent opportunity to get hands on laboratory experience and learn cutting edge lab techniques. Most of our previous volunteers have learned PCR, fluoresence-based DNA sequencing, RFLP genotyping, and fluoresence-polarization (FP) genotyping. Those interested in applying for a volunteer position should contact the Human Genetics Departmental office at (412)-624-3020.
