Current PhD Students

The Molecular & Cellular Physiology (MCP) program leads to a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree and prepares students for careers in research and teaching, with a major emphasis on training in research. Students work closely with a dissertation adviser and members of a research group on novel and important biological problems at the cellular and molecular level.  Each student’s program of study is individual, created in consultation with the adviser to best fulfill the student’s unique educational goals.
