Integrated Physiology is a multidisciplinary PhD training program that prepares students for careers in biomedical research. Students in Integrated Physiology have opportunities to explore how cells, organ systems and organisms regulate complex physiological functions through integration of molecular, cellular and physiological mechanisms.
I am thankful for the breadth of research I was exposed to while in the IPHY Program, as it gave me a birds-eye view of physiology in addition to a focused education in reproductive physiology. I gained experience in both translational and clinical research that prepared me for a research career in a clinical setting.

Dr. Strand published his article High Throughput Screen Identifies the DNMT1 (DNA Methyltransferase-1) Inhibitor, 5-Azacytidine, as a Potent Inducer of PTEN (Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog) in ATVB. His image was also featured on the cover of the August 2020 ATVB!
Great news--the Colorado Diabetes Research Center (DRC) received a P30 award. The DRC is an NIH-funded center comprised of basic, translational and clinical researchers whose diverse research programs focus on Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, diabetes complications and autoimmunity.
