How do organisms function at the molecular and cellular levels? The goal of the MCB Graduate Program is to train aspiring scientists interested in solving these questions. Students acquire a broad knowledge about current developments in molecular and cell biology, learn to be effective scientific communicators, and are trained to perform independent scientific research.
We prepare our students for a career in scientific research through:
* a flexible curriculum of courses tailored for each student's specific needs
* thesis research under the personal direction of a faculty member. Entering students participate in laboratory rotations that acquaint them with current research techniques and permit exploration of possible research areas.
* a series of journal clubs that keep students abreast of significant research findings and develop confidence with reading research literature and giving oral presentations. A seminar course is specifically designed for first-year students.
The research interests of the faculty in our program encompass:
* behavior and neurobiology
* cancer and programmed cell death
* cytoskeleton and molecular motors
* developmental biology
* DNA replication, rearrangement, and repair
* nutrition
* immunology
* signal transduction, transcriptional regulation, and RNA processing
* structural biology
