Graduates of the degree programs supported by NDRB embark on a wide range of diverse career paths as health professionals, biomedical research scientists, biotechnologists, advocates for science public policy, and educators, among many others. Our undergraduate programs provide an outstanding foundation preparing students for graduate school, medical school, dental school, and other health-related careers.
NDRB is a vibrant department of scientific discovery and academic excellence. A key to our success has been our ability to recruit dynamic faculty at both the senior and junior levels, thus ensuring that our research and educational programs will continue to grow in excellence with an infusion of new ideas and energy.
Our mission is to conduct high impact internationally recognized research and to educate and train the next generation of leaders in biological sciences.
