生理系统集中区（PSYS）专注于指导生理过程的基本原理，从细胞水平到系统水平的分析。凭借在神经科学，动植物生理学以及计算生物学等领域的师资力量，PSYS集中领域为对生物学过程的功能和机械理解感兴趣的研究生提供了广泛的培训。对于PSYS集中领域的学生来说，优势包括他们基于其独特的教育和研究背景接受的个性化培训以及灵活的课程。这种灵活性允许PSYS研究生在导师的指导下选择研究生课程，以补充和加强通过PSYS教员实验室中的实验工作获得的专业知识。
The Physiological Systems concentration area (PSYS) focuses on the fundamental principles that guide physiological processes, ranging from cellular to systems level analyses. With faculty strengths in neuroscience, plant and animal physiology, and computational biologyamongst othersthe PSYS concentration area provides broad training to graduate students interested in a functional and mechanistic understanding of biological processes. Advantages for students in the PSYS concentration area include both the personalized training that they receive based on their unique educational and research backgrounds and the flexible curriculum. This flexibility allows PSYS graduate students, with their mentor's guidance, to choose graduate courses that complement and strengthen the expertise acquired through experimental work in the lab of a PSYS faculty member.
