About the course
The goal of the MMI doctoral program is to train independent scientists to take leading roles in advancing our understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive infectious and immune diseases. The specific goals listed below are designed to foster ingenuity, creativity, and critical thinking in students that will enable them to recognize and solve key problems in infectious and immunological diseases of public health importance. Through a departmental core curriculum as well as research area-specific courses, laboratory rotations, qualifying examinations, mentored research, and professional development, all MMI PhD students are prepared to engage in cutting edge research and scholarship that advances knowledge. MMI PhD students hone their scholarship, research and professional skills. Course and laboratory work can address problems in microbial pathogenesis, immunology, disease transmission, and diseases related to malaria, mosquito and arboviral biology.
