Colquitt Lab at UCSC development and evolution of complex motor skills

Team

Our lab encompasses approaches and ideas from systems neuroscience, developmental biology, evolution, and genomics, and we’re excited to build a diverse and collaborative team of researchers. We’re actively recruiting at several levels and look forward to welcoming new members. Please contact Brad at colquitt@ucsc.edu for more information.

We are located on the stunning UC Santa Cruz campus, embedded in a redwood forest on the northern end of the Monterey Bay, in the vibrant city of Santa Cruz.
