Overview
About the program
Aspects of developmental, molecular, and cellular biology are studied, using all animal model systems. The faculty at the University of Cincinnati consists of equal numbers of basic scientists and clinicians, most of whom are national or international leaders in their fields.
The Molecular and Developmental Biology program is unique in having many collaborative projects between basic scientists and clinicians aimed at understanding both fundamental developmental mechanisms, and the applications of these to childhood disease. There is a very high level of faculty/student interaction and mentorship.
