Due to the highly translational and technology development nature of our work, as a graduate student in the Smith lab you will gain expertise in several skills that will propel you towards your goals, whether Academic-track or Biotech/Pharma. Some of these include hiPSC cerebral organoid model, single cell sequencing (transcriptome/ATAC), High-content confocal microscopy, antisense nucleotide screening, ferret in utero and various hiPSC models, as well as physiology approaches (2-photon imaging, high-throughput electrophysiology, patch-clamp, calcium/voltage imaging).
