Training Programs

Following successful completion of first year requirements and choice of a thesis laboratory, students may request admission to one of four interdisciplinary training programs: Genetics, Signal Transduction and Cell Regulation, Molecular Biophysics, and Cardiovascular Disease. Students admitted to one of these programs become eligible to be considered for financial support from the corresponding training grant, subject to availability of training funds. Requirements for these programs differ somewhat from each other and from the standard MCDB program. For further information on these programs and their requirements, see the brochure "Graduate Training Programs in MCDB" available in the Graduate Office.
