Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences
Program Description
The Ph.D. Program in Biomedical Sciences at the Florida State
University College of Medicine is designed to train modern
biomedical scientists who take advantage of genomics, proteomics,
bioinformatics and other contemporary approaches to address
questions of developmental, cell, and molecular biology related to
human health. The Program is appropriate for students with majors in
biochemistry, biology or other health-related fields.
Three broad areas of research are emphasized:
development,
neuroscience and the
molecular basis of human disease. Research rotations during the
first year allow students to make an informed choice of the research
area and major professor with whom they will conduct their Ph. D.
work. A core curriculum of the fundamentals, the choice of electives
from other departments and intellectual interaction with faculty and
post doctoral fellows, encourage graduate students to mature into
independent scientists.
