Bring your curiosity.
What makes a protein move? How does a molecular signal become a cellular response? If these questions excite you, we’d love to hear from you.
At the des Georges Lab at NYU, we bring together cryo-electron microscopy, biophysics, and computation to explore molecular machines in action. We welcome people who enjoy asking questions, sharing ideas, and tackling problems together.
We learn by exchanging ideas, asking questions, and making room for different perspectives. Collaboration is central to how we work.
We value creative approaches and careful experiments. We aim to understand mechanisms, challenge our assumptions, and follow the evidence.
Our goal is to help researchers develop their own scientific judgment, confidence, and voice, with mentorship and support from the team.
Interested in structural biology, membrane proteins, molecular dynamics, or protein synthesis? Email Amédée to discuss your research interests and graduate-program pathways into the lab.
A possible route is the Biomedical Engineering PhD at NYU Tandon. Get in touch to discuss whether this program could be a good fit for your interests in our lab.
If you are already enrolled in a PhD program, get in touch about research fit and possible rotations.
We welcome inquiries from researchers interested in connecting molecular structure with biological function. Experience in structural biology, biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology, or computational methods can bring valuable perspectives to our work.
Research experience can begin at many stages. Master’s, undergraduate, and high school students can contact us about their interests, preparation, and the time they can commit to a project.
We enjoy building scientific connections. If you see a question we could explore together, write to us about a possible visit or collaboration.
