Developmental and Stem Cell Biology - Duke University

Developmental and Stem Cell Biology from Duke University is a Campus Master Biology degree that prepares you for a Science career. Overview Duke's graduate training program in Developmental and Stem Cell Biology (DSCB) is the culmination of a long tradition of excellence in training developmental biologists at the University. Recent technological and conceptual advances have ushered in an era of unprecedented opportunities to penetrate key mechanisms of embryogenesis, stem cell biology, regeneration and other developmental phenomena. The DSCB Program is central to this research enterprise at Duke, and provides a superb training environment. The Program is a broad, interdepartmental consortium of students and faculty doing developmental research at the molecular, cellular, genetic, evolutionary, and systems levels. Each of the commonly used animal models is investigated, as well as plant developmental models. Researchers from the departments of Biochemistry, Immunology, Neurobiology, Pharmacology and Cancer Biology , Pediatrics, Surgery, Biology, Cell Biology and Microbiology and Molecular Genetics participate. Currently the Program has more than 50 faculty and 40 doctoral students. We are a young faculty; more than 70% of the DSCB faculty arrived at Duke in the past 10 years, reflecting the explosive surge in interest in this area of biological science.
