The objective of the NIH T32-supported Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology (MCP) Training Program is to equip students with the skills required to conduct high impact biomolecular, biomedical,
and pharmacological basic research. The program assists students in becoming independent investigators in these research areas, facilitating their entry into careers in industry, academia, and beyond. Advances in biomedical sciences are often based
on the development of new drugs, which improve and save the lives of millions of patients. Drugs with specific biochemical actions are also powerful research tools. They provide pharmacologists and other biomedical scientists unique research opportunities,
which help to elucidate cellular signaling cascades. Students in the MCP program will develop expertise in the fundamentals of Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology and solve a variety of problems in the basic biomedical sciences involving the design
of research strategies for the discovery of novel drugs or gene therapy approaches.
Pharmacology at the University of Michigan has a 125-year history of healing through discovery. More than any other basic science discipline, pharmacology is tightly connected to the understanding and treatment of human disease. At U-M, trainees can be
involved in the discovery of new drugs, modeling of drugs and their targets, detailed studies of drug mechanisms in disease from biochemical, molecular, and genetic perspectives, and translational studies aimed at moving drugs into the clinic. Our
trainees have gone on to become pharmaceutical company executives, research directors, and senior scientists, directors of government research labs, and recognized chairs and faculty in academia. Explore the many training opportunities we offer, including
summer internships, masters and doctoral programs, and postdoctoral fellowships.
Pharmacology and Therapeutics Discovery (PTD) is multidisciplinary training area in the PhD Program in Biomedical Sciences at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, in New York, NY. The PTD program provides cutting-edge training in a range of disciplines,
integrating experimental and computational methodologies, for the discovery of new therapeutics and the development of personalized medicine. Trainees gain a thorough understanding of drugs and drug targets, using a variety of approaches ranging from
structural, computational, molecular, and cell biology to biochemistry and synthetic chemistry. Our students also gain a deep understanding of biological systems and disease states through training that emphasizes a quantitative, predictive understanding
of physiology, pharmacology, organ-level research, and animal studies. PTD welcomes students with biological sciences background as well as those with undergraduate degrees in more quantitative disciplines. Our program promotes innovation through
coursework in entrepreneurship and summer internships with biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.
