- To provide students with the greatest flexibility in choosing a course of study, the Tetrad graduate program offers diverse training and opportunities in four major research areas: biochemistry and molecular biology, cell biology, developmental biology, and genetics.
- Although the Tetrad Program is organized into four research areas, most student thesis projects combine the strengths of multiple areas. Currently, about 120 faculty, drawn from several basic science and clinical departments, are affiliated with the Tetrad program.
