Cellular, developmental and molecular biology as well as carcinogenesis are also strong components of the curriculum and potential research areas. A broad scope of academic and research training is a major emphasis of our program. The department is fully equipped for advanced research in biochemical, biophysical, physiological and molecular biological sciences. The department is housed in the modern three-story Breidenthal building directly adjacent to a new animal facility and the Dykes Library containing current journals. Reading rooms, graduate student offices and seminar rooms are all located within the Breidenthal building.
Numerous computers are available for use by graduate students in their course work and research.
