Physiology and Biophysics
Dalhousie University's Doctor of Philosophy in Physiology and Biophysics programme offers you the opportunity to expand your options. Gain the skills you need to become a strong independent researcher or university professor.

Applied Psychophysiology
Receive rigorous training in biofeedback, neurofeedback, stress management, and more to prepare for leadership roles in sports, education, business, and beyond in the Applied Psychophysiology course from Saybrook University.

Clinical Psychology - Applied Psychophysiology
Expand beyond theory and explore the biological bases of our behaviors and how to apply various psychological techniques to help individuals achieve their optimal performance with the Clinical Psychology - Applied Psychophysiology course at Saybrook University.

Mind-Body Medicine - Applied Psychophysiology
Bridge the gap between mind and body and masterfully conduct psychophysiological interventions for hard-to-treat disorders in the Mind-Body Medicine - Applied Psychophysiology course at Saybrook University.

Psychology - Psychophysiology
Learn to assess and address underlying physiological factors and optimize human behavior for high performance or day-to-day life with the Psychology - Psychophysiology course at Saybrook University.
Cellular and Molecular Physiology
The Cellular and Molecular Physiology graduate program at Johns Hopkins University develops agile, independent scientists who identify important scientific gaps, establish creative, mechanistic hypotheses, and execute experimental strategies that are comprehensive, cutting edge, and push their field forward.
Exercise Physiology
Students in the Health and Exercise Science - Exercise Physiology program in the Department of Health and Exercise Science at the University of Oklahoma have the opportunity to investigate a number of different physiological systems.
Physiology and Integrative Biology
The Physiology and Integrative Biology course at Rutgers University offers both PhD and MS degrees with participation of research laboratories from the School of Graduate Studies, this programme is designed to provide training at the interface of genomics, cell biology and organismal physiology.
Cellular and Integrative Physiology
At the West Virginia University we offer our graduate students a phd degree in Cellular and Integrative Physiology.
Physiology
An interdisciplinary approach employing advanced methods of molecular biology and structural biophysics is the hallmark of modern scientific research, whether fundamental, clinical or translational. We offer a Physiology degree at the University of Virginia.
Applied Physiology
The mission of the Applied Physiology Ph.D. program at the University of Delaware is to provide advanced training to students in the field of applied physiology with the goal of preparing students for research-based careers.
Pathobiology, Pharmacology and Physiology
Pathobiology, Pharmacology and Physiology is one of eight interdisciplinary PhD themes within Graduate Biomedical Sciences at The University of Alabama at Birmingham. Students select a theme upon application but have access to faculty and courses from across GBS, allowing for flexibility in both research and academics.
Toxicology, Physiology and Molecular Mechanisms
Research in the Toxicology, Physiology and Molecular Mechanisms (TPMM) track at Johns Hopkins University is focused on discovering novel molecular mechanisms that drive the pathophysiology of major chronic diseases, with the goal of developing prevention and therapeutic strategies to improve public health.
Physiology
The Medical Sciences program of the Indiana University Bloomington offers work leading to the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Physiology.
Cellular and Molecular Physiology and Biophysics
The Cellular and Molecular Physiology and Biophysics Program provides a stimulating and supportive environment enabling graduate students to acquire fundamental training in physiology, cellular and molecular biology, and biophysics while participating in the rich intellectual life of Columbia University.
Cell and Molecular Biology - Cell Biology, Physiology and Metabolism
Cell Biology research at Penn has contributed to numerous medical advances in recent years, including those related to diabetes, blindness, muscular dystrophy and cancer. This Cell and Molecular Biology - Cell Biology, Physiology and Metabolism program is offered at the University of Pennsylvania.
Physiology
The PhD degree at the University of Toronto is an advanced research degree in Physiology. Upon its completion, graduates are expected to function as independent research scientists.
Physiology
At University of Alberta, we offer our graduate students a phd degree in Physiology. Inquiries about this program should be directed to the Graduate Administrator in the Department of Physiology.
Molecular and Cellular Physiology
A central goal of physiology in the post-genomic era is to understand how thousands of encoded proteins serve to bring about the highly coordinated behavior of cells and tissues. This Molecular and Cellular Physiology program is offered at Stanford University.
Cell Biology and Physiology
The Cell Biology and Physiology Curriculum at University of North Carolina Chapel Hill encompasses the fields of cell biology, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal and respiratory physiology, neurobiology, cellular signal transduction, endocrinology, and cancer.
