Current Opening
I intend to recruit 1-2 graduate students for Fall 2026 through the Graduate Degree Program in Ecology at CSU. Information about application can be found here. While all plant-related research will be considered, priorities will be given to students interested in ecophysiology, plant functional traits, or plant-microbe interactions.
Fellowship opportunities
I am always happy to discuss the possibility to sponsor motivated graduate students and postdoctoral researchers interested in fellowship programs. Below is some information on general fellowship opportunities.

Undergraduate research experience opportunities
We enthusiastically support undergraduates to gain research experience in ecology and climate change studies or pursue independent research projects. Please feel free to reach out to Dr. Chen for potential opportunities.
CSU undergraduate student Liam Milton '24 presented his research on heatwaves at the 2024 Celebration of Undergraduate Research and Creativity Showcase.
