Course Overview
In addition to the graduate training program in hypothesis-driven research carried out by leading investigators in the Department, there is also a new program in Human Systems Biology. This program provides training in the application of high throughput proteomics, genomics, and bioinformatics to the study of human and animal tissues. Our Department's researchers and mentors have been recognized for excellence in research and teaching. We have recipients of Canada Research Chairs, the McLaughlin Medal of the Royal Society of Canada, and the Pew Award. The work in the Department is competitively funded by grants from national and international funding agencies, creating an exciting intellectual environment conducive to cutting-edge research on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of biological systems and disease.
