Molecules, Cells and Organisms Training Program
A New Interdisciplinary Life Science Training Program
If you are interested in exploring
a broad spectrum of fundamental
biological problems in disciplines
as diverse as human evolution,
single-molecule biophysics,
or the intersection of chemical
biology and theoretical
chemistry, please explore the
possibilities that the MCO Training
Program has to offer. In
this interdepartmental undertaking,
graduate students are prepared
for a future in science that
requires interdisciplinary breadth
as well as depth in specific
disciplines. Graduate students
in MCO take advantage of
the wide range of faculty
expertise and
laboratory options from
the Departments of Molecular
and Cellular Biology, Chemistry
and Chemical Biology, Organismic
and Evolutionary Biology ,
and Stem
Cell and Regenerative Biology ;
as well as the Center
for Systems Biology ,
the Center
for Brain Science ,
the Microbial
Sciences
Initiative ,
and the Harvard
Stem Cell Institute .
