The Cell, Molecular, and Developmental Biol ogy Graduate Program is an interdepartmental pro- gram offering M.S. and Ph.D. degrees to stu- dents seeking advanced training in these disci- plines. The program foc uses on the bridge between basic and ap plied research and on the interface between cell, molecular, and developmental biology. Par tici pating faculty are drawn from numerous biol og ical sciences departments whose res earch interests in cell, molecular, and dev el op mental biology span bio- medical to agr i cultural problems, and students in the program benefit from unique training opportunities.
Students seeking admission into the program should meet all general requirements of the Graduate Division as printed in the Graduate Studies section of this catalog.
