Overview

The Personalized Molecular Medicine program at The University of Texas at San Antonio will train students in current personalized medicine approaches as well as teach students the knowledge and skills required to explore molecular medicine pathways that will be targeted in the future to expand and refine personalized treatment strategies. Personalized or Precision Medicine will be the norm for medicine in the future and the Personalized Molecular Medicine program will ensure that graduates fully engage as active participants in the evolution of this approach to medicine. Students will gain foundational training in biological systems, molecular mechanisms, and cutting edge translational technologies.

What you'll study

Training will include next-generation molecular technology to devise and implement personalized strategies to prevent and treat human diseases based on Individual susceptibilities through the study of complex and Integrated biological systems. Students will receive first-hand experience in the use of the latest technologies in next-generation sequencing, single cell analysis, computational biology, epigenomics, proteomics, drug design, animal models of human diseases, systems approaches, as well as instruction in "mining" the multitude of human disease databases such as The Cancer Genome Atlas.
