Every year, the VentureWell E-Teams Grant Program awards over $650,000 in grant funding to early-stage science and tech student startups who are on the path to launching innovations with a social, health or environmental impact.
Seeking students for a project opportunity in the Innovative Vector Solutions Lab
The Innovative Vector Solutions Lab develops novel arthropod vector trapping and control devices to collect and repel mosquitoes of medical importance (vectors of diseases such as Dengue, Chikungunya, Zika and Malaria).
The lab is currently recruiting undergraduate students to join our engineering lab to develop novel technologies to reduce the worldwide mosquito-borne disease burden. There is the option to do a Barrett honors thesis.
Motivated students with a background in mechanical engineering and/or with expertise or experience or knowledge in one of the following are welcome to apply:
