• The program specialization at the masters degree level may be undertaken in the areas of: cardiovascular and exercise physiology; cellular and molecular physiology; cellular and molecular kidney physiology and hypertension; endocrine physiology; neurophysiology; and respiratory physiology. These program specializations are available to both part-time and full-time students, in research degree programs only.
  • From cardiovascular disease to endocrine signaling, and from cellular transport to invasive species, our research on living organisms is at the forefront of novel discoveries to protect human health. 
  • The research and teaching takes an integrated approach, with methods ranging from modern molecular genetics and biochemistry (nanotechnology and proteomics) to cutting-edge in vitro (isolated cell and organ function), and normal and pathologic in function in vivo (genetically modified animal models of human diseases).
