医学和分子遗传学哲学博士

博士 医学和分子遗传学专业课程为希望从事哺乳动物遗传学研究和/或服务职业的学生提供了出色的培训。在迅速变化的人类遗传学领域中，有28名具有初级任命的教职员工和超过45名具有中等和兼职任命的教职员工提供了广泛的研究机会。毕业要求包括完成课程，在部门资格考试中取得成功，捍卫研究计划，进行原创研究项目以及答辩论文。该计划的毕业生在医学遗传学领域知识渊博，并将接受分子生物学，细胞遗传学和群体遗传学的专门课程。我们计划的独特之处在于，学生将参加医学遗传学诊所，以促进对从板凳到床旁医学科学方法的理解。
The PhD program in Medical and Molecular Genetics provides training to students who wish to pursue a career in research and/or service in mammalian genetics. The 28 faculty members with primary appointments and the more than 45 faculty with secondary and adjunct appointments within the Department of Medical and Molecular Genetics provide a wide range of research opportunities in the rapidly changing field of human genetics. <br><br>Students enter the PhD program through the Indiana BioMedical Gateway (IBMG) Program for PhD Study, which provides a shared first-year experience for all IU School of Medicine biomedical science PhD students. Students have the freedom to explore research areas through three rotations in laboratories across programs and choose entry into any of the ten PhD programs at the conclusion of the first academic year. The open enrollment system enhances the community of graduate students by offering a shared collaborative culture, a vital component of today's inter-disciplinary nature of biomedical science research.<br><br>Students in the Genetics PhD program have the opportunity to participate in medical genetics clinics to facilitate an understanding of the bench to bedside approach to medical science.
