分子生物学，细胞生物学和发育生物学系的研究小组在探索潜在分子，细胞和组织的协调行为以形成活生物体的机制方面有着共同的兴趣。我们结合了遗传，生化，分子，细胞生物学和定量方法，研究了从病毒和微生物到植物，蠕虫，苍蝇，鱼类和哺乳动物等各种生物的基本生物学过程。我们致力于卓越的研究和教学，并为学生提供多样化的课程和研究机会。我们研究兴趣的共同点与多样的实验方法相结合，有助于建立一个严格而又跨学科的协作环境。分子，细胞和发育生物学（MCDB）的研究生课程旨在为学生提供各种机会，以为他们奠定现代基础的坚实基础生物学，
The graduate program in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology (MCDB) is designed to provide students with diverse opportunities for acquiring a strong foundation in modern biology and applying it toward the generation of new knowledge through exciting research. Research groups in the Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology share a common interest in exploring the mechanisms underlying the coordinated behaviors of molecules, cells and tissues to form living organisms. We combine genetic, biochemical, molecular, cell biological and quantitative approaches to investigate fundamental biological processes across a range of organisms, from viruses and microbes to plants, worms, flies, fish and mammals. We are committed to excellence in research and teaching, and offer students a diversity of course offerings and research opportunities. The commonalities of our research interests combined with varied experimental approaches help forge a rigorous yet interdisciplinary and collaborative environment.
