Faculty in the Department of Physiology mentor approximately 20 postdoctoral trainees per year. Trainees come to us from all over the world and possess a PhD, MD, DVM, or a combination of more than one advanced degree. Persons interested in a postdoctoral position in Physiology should contact directly the faculty member whose research most closely matches their own interests.

Medical and Dental Education

The Department of Physiology plays an active role in several blocks of courses taught during the first and second years of the medical curriculum and the first year of the dental curriculum. Physiology faculty serve as both leadership and instructors in the medical and dental school courses. For information about medical student education go to:
