In 1971, University faculty joined together to create an advanced degree in Cell Biology. For over twenty years, students earned masters and doctoral degrees in Cell and Molecular Biology. At last week’s Board of Trustees’ meeting, it was approved to change the name to broaden the ever changing landscape of research. The new name of CMB is, Cellular, Molecular and Biomedical Sciences.
Student Spotlight
I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst with a B.S. in Microbiology in 2012. I am very excited to join the Cell and Molecular Biology department at UVM this fall. I decided to attend UVM mainly for the amount of research being done in my field of interest (microbial pathogenesis) by faculty and graduate students. I am also an avid skiier, biker and general outdoor sports enthusiast so the environment surrounding the University is perfect. Filiz Korkmaz Retreat 2012
