Molecular & Integrative Physiology

Researchers in the MBBS Molecular & Integrative Physiology Concentration strive to improve understanding of the function of molecules, cells, tissues and organisms with an emphasis on their relation to human biology and medicine.  Students will use sophisticated cell, molecular and integrative approaches to address research problems in mammalian physiology, vascular physiology, cell physiology, molecular biology, molecular endocrinology, neuroendocrinology, behavioral neuroscience, molecular neuroscience, molecular physiology in sensory organs, reproductive biology, reproductive endocrinology, developmental biology and human anatomy.  The Molecular & Integrative Physiology Concentration, on the Carbondale campus, offers a highly interactive environment for graduate students to develop technical and professional skills applicable to multiple career paths.
