The mission of the Bioinformatics program is to create novel and impactful informatics and computationally methods, tools, and algorithms, and resources to extend basic and clinical research capabilities and results.

Labs in the Department of Biological Chemistry focus on studying the molecular mechanisms that drive life, using a wide range of quantitative approaches. Our department trains students in modern biochemistry with a focus on providing interdisciplinary opportunities.

The Doctoral Program in Cancer Biology at the University of Michigan is an interdisciplinary program whose goal is to train the next generation of cancer researchers.

The Department of Cell & Developmental Biology at the University of Michigan Medical School is dedicated to the instruction and guidance of trainees in the areas of cell biology, developmental biology, genetics, neuroscience, organogenesis, stem cell biology, and tissue repair and regeneration.

The Cellular and Molecular Biology Program offers broad-based training spanning all disciplines in the biomedical sciences. Students can choose from more than 150 faculty laboratories throughout the University, and interact and collaborate in a supportive and student-oriented research environment. Come learn more!

The Genetics and Genomics Program is devoted to furthering our understanding of biology and human disease.

Health Infrastructures and Learning Systems (HILS) is a first-in-the-nation basic science department focused on learning across multiple levels of scale (i.e. individual, group, organization, region, nation) to promote innovation and improvement in health.

The Microbiology & Immunology graduate program provides training in basic and translational research centered on microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites) and the host response. Key areas of focus in the department include microbiome research, microbial pathogenesis, ecology and evolution, and basic immunology.

The Molecular, Cellular, & Developmental Biology program offers and impressive breadth of scientific approaches, experimental expertise and biological diversity with an emphasis on model systems.

The Molecular and Cellular Pathology (MCP) graduate program bridges basic and clinical science focused on the molecular mechanisms of human diseases, prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The MCP program provides a strong background in molecular biology, epigenetics, aging, immunology, omics and translational research to prepare students for academic, research, teaching and biotechnology careers.

The Molecular & Integrative Physiology (MIP) Graduate Program is focused on fostering career development and training future scientists in the integrative functioning of living organisms and how molecular, cellular and whole organism approaches can be used to study these functions at multiple levels in both health and human disease.

The University of Michigan Neuroscience Graduate Program focuses on excellence in education and training. We are a collegial, diverse, and interactive group that works across the breadth of the neuroscience field. Our program captures the excitement and interdisciplinary collaboration, intrinsic to the field of neuroscience.

Pharmacology allows you to have a real impact on human health while working in the lab. Pharmacology is multidisciplinary, bringing together ideas from chemistry, biochemistry, cell biology and integrative biology to create a comprehensive framework for u understanding and treating disease.
