Course Overview

Students enrolled in the Ph.D. program will participate in a common first semester curriculum that will provide an essential background for biomedical science research. Firsthand exposure to research areas such as cancer, neuroscience, and infectious and cardiovascular diseases is gained through laboratory rotations without restriction to any one area of focus.

Collaboration among laboratory scientists of all disciplines is encouraged. The PhD program thrives upon the participation from USF Health’s world-class faculty and our successful collaborations with our research partners: the Moffitt Cancer Center, James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital, All Children’s Hospital, and Tampa General Hospital. Students have a plethora of opportunities to participate in cutting-edge research projects on a multidisciplinary basis – from molecules to systems, from bench to bedside.

Successful USF graduates go on to be involved in research at academic, industrial and government institutions.
