PhD Research Philosophy

• We focus on the nervous, cardiovascular, and renal systems, and typically combine molecular and cellular level approaches in our research, often seeking integration with organ systems.
• Most laboratories are involved in research that provides basic knowledge or seeks to cure diseases, ranging from Alzheimer’s, to Cancer, to Hypertension, …. View Departmental Research >>
• Collaborations between laboratories within the School of Medicine, Cleveland, the Nation and International Research groups are common. Often these interactions directly involve graduate researchers.
• Our departmental research seminar series invites internationally renowned researchers who also engage students at weekly lunch meetings and a special Q&A sessions. View Seminar Schedule >>
• Our department has state-of-the art facilities. The renovation of nearly 40,000 square feet of space was completed in 2009. In the past 4 years, we have invested more than $3.5 million in core and general-use research equipment for our Research Groups. View Equipment. Large-scale instrumentation and resources are available through multiple centers and departments across campus.
