Key biomedical fields encompass anatomy (both macroscopic and microscopic), physiology/pharmacology (spanning molecular, cellular, and systemic levels), biochemistry/molecular biology, endocrinology, and toxicology. Focus areas include exercise science covering cardiac, vascular, and muscular systems; cardiovascular research involving neuroendocrine control; membrane transport studies related to cystic fibrosis and heart conditions; and reproductive biology examining estrogen-related environmental toxins and growth mechanisms.
The Master's program in Fundamental Biomedical Sciences offers comprehensive education to develop interdisciplinary researchers specializing in basic science (molecular, cellular, organ, and systems-level). Faculty from various medical science backgrounds create exceptional training opportunities for biomedical investigation. Foundational coursework covers physiology, cellular biology, and research techniques. The program's interdisciplinary nature is further reflected in each student's graduate committee structure.
