SYSTEMS AND INTEGRATED PHYSIOLOGY PH.D.

This track of the Cell Physiology Program focuses on studies of the response of cells and organs in the whole-body environment. Researchers apply state-of-the-art methodologies to study cardiovascular, neuronal, gastrointestinal, renal, integumental, immune cell biology. The program supports a thriving graduate training program designed to train the next generation of systems biologists. Most students receive a full tuition waiver, a stipend, and health benefits during the full duration of their studies.
