生物医学科学理学硕士-口腔生物学与病理学

卫生科学中心内的口腔生物学和病理学研究生课程提供旨在获得MS和博士学位的研究计划。度。MS课程大约持续两年，特别适合那些希望在进入临床专业之前或获得临床专业的同时接受进一步基础科学培训的牙科毕业生。寻求额外培训和更高学位的工业基础科学家也对口腔生物学和病理学研究生课程特别感兴趣。尽管该部门对口腔生物学的各个方面都感兴趣，但目前正在进行的积极研究计划包括：牙齿，各种上皮表面的口腔菌群的发育，代谢和控制，口腔腐败，恶臭和牙龈炎，发病机理牙周炎，全身和口腔疾病之间的相互关系，牙本质过敏的机理和治疗，健康和患病牙
The overall goals of the Master of Science degree program in Biomedical Sciences (Physiology and Biophysics track) are to provide students with a biomedical foundation towards their higher professional education or career goals in medicine and research. We seek to ready our students for entry and success into medical and dental programs, as well as positions of research staff scientist in laboratories and industry, a teaching career at the undergraduate college level, or further graduate study leading to the Ph.D. degree. To accomplish these goals, the program of study provides training in cellular and systems-level physiology, membrane biophysics, experimental design, data analysis, and commonly used laboratory techniques in integrative physiology. We provide a heavy emphasis on pathophysiology and clinical case-based learning. Elective coursework in Physiology and Biophysics, Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, Molecular and Cellular Biology, and Pharmacological Sciences are then selected to complement and expand on the above core training, and meet the individual needs of each student.
