The Molecular Biophysics graduate program is dedicated to developing scientists who excel at research but are also serious thinkers and effective communicators.
Our curriculum is rigorous and continually refined in response to student feedback. From their earliest lab rotations onward, students gain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art biophysical tools and benefit from expert mentorship in a highly collaborative research environment.
We are currently focused on deepening faculty–student engagement through small-group interactions, enhancing training in both written and oral scientific communication, and to increase our trainees’ already impressive success rates for independent fellowships.
The program fosters a supportive and collegial atmosphere where students are empowered to grow and succeed. Come join us!
