We're always looking for motivated students and postdoctoral fellows with interest in virus-host interactions to join our team!

First-year graduate students should email Dr. Gammon to arrange for summer or fall lab rotations.

Prospective graduate students should apply directly to the UT Southwestern Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences for entry into a relevant Ph.D. program. Once admitted to a Ph.D. program, students will have the option of rotating in the lab in their first year.

Don Gammon, Ph.D.

Assistant Professor | Microbiology
W.W. Caruth, Jr. Scholar in Biomedical Research

Dr. Gammon received his B.S. degree in Biological Sciences at the University of Windsor (Windsor, Canada) and went on to obtain his Ph.D. in Virology at the University of Alberta (Edmonton, Canada) in the laboratory of Dr. David Evans. While at the University of Alberta, Dr. Gammon’s research helped to elucidate the genetic and biochemical nature of poxvirus resistance to clinically-important acyclic nucleoside phosphonate drugs.
