Its inception marked the first such program in the State of Texas and was rooted in the firm belief that rigorous training of scientists in the genetic and biochemical basis of human disease would provide an effective means to translate rapid advances in basic research into practical health benefits for the 21st-century public.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, the Program in Molecular Medicine offers a research-oriented, interdisciplinary program of study in the following areas as they relate to the fundamental understanding of cancer biology and its prevention: signal transduction and control of gene expression, cell cycle and checkpoint controls, DNA damage repair and mechanisms of genomic instability, regulated protein degradation, and animal models of aging and cancer. The curriculum provides a program for those seeking the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Programs Offered<\/h2>\n<p><strong><a class=\"carat-double\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uthscsa.edu\/academics\/biomedical-sciences\/programs\/personalized-molecular-medicine-ms\">Master of Science in Personalized Molecular Medicine<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a class=\"carat-double\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uthscsa.edu\/academics\/biomedical-sciences\/programs\/integrated\/cellbiology-genetics-molecularmedicine\">Ph.D. in Cell Biology, Genetics, and Molecular Medicine in the Integrated Biomedical Sciences<\/a><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;] \n        <a class=\"panel no-equilizer panel-mobile text-center colorized colorized-academics\" href=\"https:\/\/lsom.uthscsa.edu\/molecular-medicine\/faculty\/\" title=\"Faculty\" target=\"\">\n            <span class=\"circle close2x mid-icon\"><span><i class=\"fa fa-user-md\"><\/i><\/span><\/span><br>\n            <h3 >Faculty<\/h3>\n            <p><\/p>\n        <\/a> \n        <a class=\"panel no-equilizer panel-mobile text-center colorized\" href=\"https:\/\/lsom.uthscsa.edu\/molecular-medicine\/education\/fellows-graduate-students\/\" title=\"Postdoctoral Fellows and Graduate Students\" target=\"\">\n            <span class=\"circle close2x mid-icon\"><span><i class=\"fa fa-users\"><\/i><\/span><\/span><br>\n            <h3 >Postdoctoral Fellows and Graduate Students<\/h3>\n            <p><\/p>\n        <\/a>[vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;panel outline&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"colorized-heading ruled-heading\">Contact Us<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Jessica Navarro<\/strong><br \/>\nCell Biology, Genetics, and Molecular Medicine Discipline Coordinator<br \/>\n210-562-4141<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:navarroj3@uthscsa.edu\">navarroj3@uthscsa.edu<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] Overview of the Graduate Programs in Molecular Medicine The Graduate Program in Molecular Medicine was established in 1994 as a forward-looking academic program designed to train students at the interface of basic and clinical sciences.
