Graduate Program
Students in the Anatomy and Cell Biology Graduate Program benefit from integrated training in molecular cell biology and human structural anatomy—this provides a solid foundation for careers in cutting edge research concerning the molecular mechanisms of human diseases.
Faculty in the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology work at the forefront of research areas that fall into the three broad categories defining the tracks offered for graduate training:
- Cancer Biology
- Developmental and Stem Cell Biology
- Molecular Medicine and Gene Therapy
Details of program requirements and how to apply are available through the following links:
- Entry via Biosciences Program (Biosciences Website)

- Anatomy and Cell Biology Graduate Student Handbook
- Anatomy and Cell Biology Graduate College Teaching Certificate
- Contact information
All Graduate Students within the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology are invited to join the student organization called ASK ME (ACB Student Knowledge and Materials Exchange). The purpose of this organization is to:
- Enhance communication among ACB students
- Enable students to easily find others to share techniques, reagents and equipment
- Enhance research outcomes for ACB students
Those who join will have their personal lab techniques displayed on the ACB website and be invited to join a ListServ, which will enable those involved to easily contact other members to find classmates who can teach techniques and share reagents and equipment (antibodies, centrifuges, etc.) when the situation arises. For a list of those students who have joined and their lab techniques click here.
