UW Molecular Medicine & Mechanisms of Disease PhD Program

Share

Three core courses focus on mechanisms of disease, the impact of basic science on medicine, and human genetics, providing a rigorous intellectual foundation.

The interdisciplinary M3D PhD Program trains students to use advances in basic sciences to solve problems relevant to human disease; and to use insights from human disease processes to solve fundamental biological problems. Each student participates in Chief of Medicine rounds, and in a mentored clinical rotation, in the broad area of human genetics or in a more focused area relevant to the studen

Stimulation of functional neuronal regeneration from Müller glia in adult mice : Nature : Nature Research 09/12/2017

Our students are doing incredible things this summer. Nik Jorstad created new neurons in the retina of adult mice for the first time and was published in Nature this summer.

This is just one of the many publications that are came out this year. Please check out our website to see what else is happening in M3D!

Stimulation of functional neuronal regeneration from Müller glia in adult mice : Nature : Nature Research Many retinal diseases lead to the loss of retinal neurons and cause visual impairment. The adult mammalian retina has little capacity for regeneration. By contrast, teleost fish functionally regenerate their retina following injury, and Müller glia (MG) are the source of regenerated neurons. The pro...
