Graduate Students

I will likely be recruiting students to join the lab in the 2025-2026 academic year. I accept my students through the Graduate Group in Ecology (https://ecology.ucdavis.edu/). Applications are due December 1.

If you are interested, feel free to reach out by sending me an email (dkarp@ucdavis.edu) with an up-to-date CV and a short cover letter letting me know a little bit about your research background and what you broadly hope to work on in graduate school. Also, feel free to visit this webpage to learn more about our lab’s values and expectations of graduate students.

Postdocs

Feel free to contact me if you are interested in doing a postdoc in the Karp Lab. I am happy to support applications to a variety of fellowships, including the Smith Fellowship, the Ford Foundation Fellowship Program, the NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship Program, the USDA NIFA Postdoctoral Program, the UC President’s Fellowship Program, and others! I will also post any funded opportunities here as they become available.
