This doctoral program provides advanced training across the biological sciences, with particular strength in cell and molecular biology. Candidates work closely with established faculty mentors who are recognised internationally for their research.
Research themes range from cancer and the nervous system to gene regulation, evolution, development, and plant and environmental questions. Federal grants support much of the department's work, and travel support is offered to students who present their findings at professional meetings.
Doctoral candidates are expected to design original studies, analyse results, and communicate discoveries to scientific audiences.
