Current Graduate Students logo

Our graduate student community is comprised of students who received their undergraduate degrees from both large and small universities with various scientific backgrounds and who hail from around the world. Graduate students doing work in DSB labs are part of the broad Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences with different subspecialized programs of study. Projects in the different labs encompass topics such as genome structure and function, antibiotic function and resistance, mechanisms of cell death, metabolism, gene expression regulation, host-microbial interaction and pathogenesis, chromosomal aberrations, cancer etiology and cellular survival and adaptation under harsh conditions all studied at the systems level. Since research in most DSB labs involve a combination of both experimental (molecular biology, genomics, imaging…) and computational sciences (quantitative modeling, AI, bioinformatics…), graduate students in the DSB have the opportunity to obtain training in both aspects. Students engage in research that is often highly collaborative among the DSB labs and vibrant discussions often take place both within the labs and in the departmental break areas. In addition to attending meetings and presenting their work at offsite meetings within their field, students are encouraged to present their research in our weekly Science on Tap seminar series. For information about the graduate student application process please see our Education homepage.
