Excellence in Research | Devoted to Innovation
Biomedical sciences are constantly evolving and forever forward-looking, seeking to harness the best new approaches and tools to understand biology and life.
The goal of the Human Physiology major is to help students understand the function of the human body by pursuing systematic studies of cells, tissues and organisms.
The PhD Graduate Program in Integrative Biology and Physiology (IBP) is a unique hybrid of the field of physiology, the cornerstone of biomedical research and medicine, and the rapidly advancing fields of molecular, genetic and cellular biology.
The research mission of the Department of Integrative Biology and Physiology (IBP) is dedicated to an integrative systems biology approach to bio-medical discovery.
Department Head Joe Metzger, PhD
We are a dynamic and growing medical school basic science department that values excellence, innovation, diversity, inclusion and impact as cornerstones to biomedical research and education. We aspire to be the leading research and education physiology program in the country.
