  • Being a molecular major has helped in several aspects of dental school, 但到目前为止，最明显的就是在我的生物化学课上能够理解信号通路的语言. The material we learned in cell biology and advanced cell 为我更深入地了解你在学校头两年所学的科学奠定了基础吗.
    Bryce Childers, Dental Student, Class of 2019
  • Because of the molecular biology major, I went into PA school with a better understanding of the cellular 潜在疾病病理和药物机制的途径和遗传过程. Medicine is moving toward treating diseases at the molecular level, so molecular biology was a fantastic base to prepare for my medical training.
