Welcome to the CUAJUNGCO Laboratory
Welcome to the CUAJUNGCO Laboratory
OUR MISSION
The Cuajungco laboratory is a molecular and cellular biology laboratory. The goal of the laboratory is to integrate the Biological Science department’s inquiry-based pedagogy with hands-on, hypothesis-driven and cutting-edge research experience (one of the university’s high impact practices).
Information for High School, Undergraduate, and Graduate Students
Dr. Cuajungco encourages students (post-graduate, undergraduate, or high school) who are interested in his research to browse the website. Anyone who would like to participate in research should contact him for further information about opportunities at least 1 month before the semester starts (there is no guarantee that a space is available once the semester has started).

For HS students, please send your CV/resume to be considered for summer research but please note that due to the recurring COVID19 medical situation, our research capacity remains limited to CSUF students.
