CINID provides transdisciplinary training

CINID provides a dynamic and broad-spectrum research environment with expertise and equipment that allow graduate training in a variety of cutting-edge techniques. In addition to core classes provided by the biomedical sciences program, team-taught elective courses that bridge research fields are also offered and tailored to meet student needs.

A key component of CINID training programs is ongoing collaborations across labs and fields. These collaborations provide exceptional opportunities for students to receive cross-training in immunology, neuroscience, physiology, and radiation biology as well as in specific disease models and field subspecialties.

Current CINID trainees work on projects funded by the American Heart Association, the National Institutes of Health, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and other funding agencies.
