Duke’s graduate training program in Developmental and Stem Cell Biology (DSCB) is the culmination of a long tradition of excellence in training developmental biologists at the University. Recent technological and conceptual advances have ushered in an era of unprecedented opportunities to penetrate key mechanisms of embryogenesis, stem cell biology, regeneration and other developmental phenomena. The DSCB Program is central to this research enterprise at Duke, and provides a superb training environment. The Program is a broad, interdepartmental consortium of students and faculty doing developmental research at the molecular, cellular, genetic, evolutionary, and systems levels. Each of the commonly used animal models is investigated, as well as plant developmental models. Researchers from the departments of Biochemistry, Immunology, Neurobiology, Pharmacology and Cancer Biology, Pediatrics, Surgery, Biology, Cell Biology and Microbiology and Molecular Genetics participate.
