Our Students

"Working toward a PhD in Translational Biomedical Science (TBS) at URMC has been an incredibly rewarding experience. I’ve had the opportunity to tailor my coursework and research to align with my scientific interests and long-term career goals. I think what makes this program so unique is the ability to learn from and collaborate with such a diverse group of scientists across many different research areas. The students and faculty in this program are highly supportive, collaborative, and passionate about their work, which creates a fantastic training environment. One of the things I value most about this program is its central focus on translational research and the “bench to bedside” approach. TBS has helped me develop skills to think critically about how discoveries made in the lab can be translated into meaningful advances in patient care. "
